On resource defense and sustainable grazing: Forage use by territorial and non-territorial guanaco groups
(Elsevier, 2018-05)
Recent studies suggest that territorial defense can act as a regulating agent of herbivore density, buffering crowding effects and preventing vegetation depletion. The occurrence of territorial families and non-territorial ...
Indirect measures of reproductive effort in a resource-defense polygynous ungulate: Territorial defense by male guanacos
(Springer Tokyo, 2012-01)
Trade-offs between reproductive effort and activities that are likely to enhance survival have been studied extensively in harem defense ungulates. However, among resource defense systems, ecological determinants of the ...

Resource-defense polygyny and self-limitation of population density in free-ranging guanacos
(Oxford Univ Press Inc, 2016-01)
Although ecologists and managers have been increasingly preoccupied with the crowding consequences of overabundant herbivores,the potential role of territorial behavior as a self-regulatory agent has seldom been considered. ...
Experimental evidence of habitat selection and territoriality in the Amazonian whip spider Heterophrynus longicornis (Arachnida, Amblypygi)
(2013)
Animals that select and defend suitable habitats against conspecifics may be favored by maximizing prey encounter rate, gaining protection, or securing matings. However, the identification of habitat selection and ...
Resource defense polygyny shifts to female defense polygyny over the course of the reproductive season of a Neotropical harvestman
(SPRINGER, 2008)
Although studies classify the polygynous mating system of a given species into female defense polygyny (FDP) or resource defense polygyny (RDP), the boundary between these two categories is often slight. Males of some ...
