Ecological correlates of roe deer fawn survival in a sub-Mediterranean population

摘要: We investigated the effect of body mass, spring and summer total rainfall, birth period, local population density on survival 130 roe deer (Capreolus capreolus (L., 1758)) fawns captured over seven fawning seasons (1997–2003) radio-monitored daily. modelled using program MARK, incorporating biological questions into different models, following a priori hypotheses. The best model was selected Akaike’s information criterion. surveyed by counts estimates were obtained mark–resight methods. Weekly exhibits pseudo-threshold time trend. Probability is low (0.33 ± 0.0046) in summer, increases (0.79 0.0021) fall, approaches highest value typical adult (0.90 0.00091 0.96 0.00021 end March May, respectively) during early birth. final predicts that positively affected precipitation body...
