Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Synthesizing studies of parental care in a wide variety of animals, this book is the first attempt to provide general answers to the following important questions: Why does the extent of parental care vary so widely between species? Why do only females care for eggs and young in some animals, only males in others, and both parents in a few? To what extent is parental care adjusted to variation in its benefits to offspring and its costs to parents? How do parents divide their resources between their sons and daughters? In this book separate chapters examine the evolution of variation in egg and neonate size, of viviparity and other forms of bearing, and of differences in the duration of incubation, gestation, and lactation. The book reviews theoretical and empirical predictions concerning the evolution of parental care and examines the extent to which these are supported by empirical evidence. The author examines the distribution of parental care among offspring, reviews the empirical evidence that parents invest to different extents in their sons and daughters, and discusses the degree to which parents manipulate the sex ratio of their progeny in relation to the availability of resources.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The book aims to integrate our understanding of mammalian societies into a novel synthesis that is relevant to behavioural ecologists, ecologists, and anthropologists. It adopts a coherent structure that deals initially with the characteristics and strategies of females, before covering those of males, cooperative societies and hominid societies. It reviews our current understanding both of the structure of societies and of the strategies of individuals; it combines coverage of relevant areas of theory with coverage of interspecific comparisons, intraspecific comparisons and experiments; it explores both evolutionary causes of different traits and their ecological consequences; and it integrates research on different groups of mammals with research on primates and humans and attempts to put research on human societies into a broader perspective.

Download or read book A Study of the Numbers, Diet and Effects of Cattle (bos Taurus L.) and Feral Goats (capra Domestic) on the Ecology of the Burren National Park, Co. Clare, Ireland written by Dolores Sarah Byrne and published by . This book was released on 2001 with total page 239 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Feral goats (Capra domestic) are present for the entire year in the Burren National Park(BNP). Approximately 25-30 cattle (Bos Taurus L.) are licensed to graze in the BNP between October and April. The numbers of feral goats and cattle in the BNP were recorded during the duration of the study, between October 1994 and April 1998, and their home-ranges were calculated. Numbers of feral goats ranged between 63 and 85. The home-range of feral goats measured 17.2km2, which was greater than the previously calculated home-range of 4.505km2, (Bonham and Fairley, 1984). The home-range of cattle was lower than that of feral goats and measured 7.8km2. The analysis of diet showed that both cattle and feral goats included high percentages of grass in their diet. The high usage of grasses by feral goats in the BNP is a result which has not been reported in many other studies. Forage selectivity analysis of the dietary results pointed to overlap in terms of species and habitats targeted by cattle and goats and this overlap could be taken to indicate competition for resources. Two sets of Exclosures and their respective Controls were surveyed 16 years after their establishment on Mullagh Mor mountain using the original point quadrat method, with the aim of elucidating the effects of cattle and feral goat grazing on the Burren vegetation. Overall, a general decline in species diversity was noted in both the Exclosures and Controls and also in the resurvey of non-permanent quadrats from three previous studies in the BNP. Potentially a number of factors may be responsible for this trend, including changes in the management of the BNP, such as the removal of the majority of feral goats in 1994, and potentially climatic, and other changes, to the environment of the BNP. Similarly, the survey of the invertebrate population in the Exclosures and Controls, with the exception f some significant differences in 1996, did not provide conclusive results of differences in numbers and abundances of taxa between the Exclosures or Controls. However, the data did indicate that there was a difference between the Upper and Lower areas where they are situated. It was concluded from these results that grazing by cattle are feral goats is producing an effect on the Burren vegetation, but the simplistic relationship between grazing and control of Burren vegetation as has been postulated in the past cannot be extrapolated from the present results.
