Loners Have It: Insights on Breeding and Non‐Breeding Individuals of Sloth Bears in Central India

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 9, September 2026.
Dynamics of breeding biology, such as intraspecific sexual segregation, indicate avoidance of infanticide and/or reduced resource competition, which are reported for some bear species but are lacking for Sloth bears (Melursus ursinus). We found that mother bears with cubs segregate themselves from lone adults spatio‐temporally by avoiding resource‐rich
