摘要: Spatio-temporal variations in conspecific density and resource availability are two of the main factors responsible for plasticity habitat selection. Despite need selection models that can accurately predict animal distribution given process, no study has assessed synergistic effects these on We investigated density-dependent functional responses by raccoons (Procyon lotor) striped skunks (Mephitis mephitis), hosts rabies virus North America. monitored 54 12 with Global-Positioning-System collars a landscape dominated corn fields forest patches. built functions to evaluate if varied field within 100% minimum convex polygons. Raccoons altered their depending both corn-forest edge or prop...
