Winter Is Coming: Conserving Body Protein in Female Reindeer, Caribou, and Muskoxen
Frontiers in Ecology and Evolution, 2020 Northern ungulates undergo pregnancy in winter when food supplies are low. Consequently, females employ a capital breeding strategy that relies upon maternal body stores of energy and protein for fetal growth. We studied captive female reindeer (Rangifer
