The paper describes different feeding styles among antelope, in terms of selection of food items and coverage of home ranges, and argues that these feeding styles bear a relationship to maximum group size of feeding animals through the influence of dispersion ofFood items upon group cohesion.

Sexual dimorphism in mammals is not entirely satisfactorily explained by the models that are advanced to account for it among birds. This may be because species‐specific styles of being dimorphic,…

A metapopulation approach is needed that integrates captive and wild-living island and peninsula (disease suppression) populations to minimize the loss of genetic diversity over 50 years until either extinction and reintroduction can occur, resistance evolves or a field-deliverable vaccine is developed.
Daily activity of impala
The presence of females in his territory disturbs the basic activity pattern of the territorial male, reducing his time spent on feeding and ruminating and the relationship between the occurrence of males in shade and some environmental factors is analysed.

It is shown that the availability of den sites predicts the offspring sex ratio in populations of the common brushtail possum, and low per capita availability of dens was correlated with male bias in the sex ratio at birth.
