Competition and Resource Partitioning in Temperate

R. Putman
Competition and Resource Partitioning in Temperate Ungulate
Assemblies
Series: Chapman & Hall Wildlife Ecology and Behaviour Series
Rory Putman addresses the question of how, in many temporate ecosystems, diverse and
species-rich assemblies of ungulates manage to co-exist despite often quite extensive
overlap in ecological requirements. Putman explores the potential for competition,
competition tolerance and even positive facilitation amongst the members of such guilds
of ungulates. As a central worked example, the author employs data resulting from over
20 years of personal research into the ecology and population dynamics of various large
herbivores of the New Forest in Southern England. With these, he applies formal protocols
in resource use, evidence for resource limitation and evidence for interaction between
species in changing population size over the years.
