TL;DR: A hierarchical analytical approach is developed—using generalized linear mixed‐effects modeling of time series of home range sizes—that allows variance in home range size to be decomposed into components due to variation in temporal, spatial, and individual‐level processes, also facilitating intra‐ and interspecific comparative analyses.

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors address the most important issues characterising current ungulate conservation and management in Europe and present some key points arising from ecological research that may be critical for a reassessment of ungulated management in the future.

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors investigated space and diet overlaps between red deer and Apennine chamois and their effects on foraging behavior of the latter, and compared the composition of grasslands with that recorded when the former were absent.

TL;DR: Behavioural interference may explain how fallow deer outcompete roe deer through spatial exclusion from feeding sites and avoidance of areas with high densities of the former.

TL;DR: In the study area, apparently tigers and leopards did not base their coexistence on diet partitioning, suggesting a major role for spatial and/or temporal partitioning.
