    Does predation risk affect spatial use in an introduced ungulate species? The case of a Mediterranean mouflon alpine colony

    Predation risk is known to affect the spatial use of prey species, imposing a trade-off between feeding requirements and predation avoidance. As a result, prey species can leave high-quality forage areas to us...
