Benefits for Dominant Red Deer Hinds under a Competitive Feeding System: Food Access Behavior, Diet and Nutrient Selection
Figure 3
Influence of the energy on the observed standarized selection ratios during first feeding hour (Bi0–1; black triangles and solid line; R = 0.79) and first to fifth (Bi1–5; hollow triangles and dashed line; R = 0.68).
Note the different slopes, which indicate a lower selectivity in the second period when the amount of food available was lower.
