Remote sensing reveals the role of forage quality and quantity for summer habitat use in red deer

Remote sensing reveals the role of forage quality and quantity for summer habitat use in red deer

Abstract Background The habitat use of wild ungulates is determined by forage availability, but also the avoidance of predation and human disturbance. They should apply foraging strategies that provide the most energy at the lowest cost. However, due to data limitations at the scale of movement traj...
