Abstract: Objectives Determine how selectively these species feed and assess vegetation as a factor in demographic processes in the two species. Findings and Status Early cessation of seasonal breeding was observed in high density populations of M. montanus in 1991. In optional habitat, M. montanus populations had increased by factors of 1.4 and 1.9 over October, 1990 estimates.

| ABSTRACT | Objectives
Determine how selectively these species feed and assess vegetation as a factor in demographic processes in the two species.
Findings and Status
Early cessation of seasonal breeding was observed in high density populations of M. montanus in 1991. In optional habitat, M. montanus populations had increased by factors of 1.4 and 1.9 over October, 1990 estimates. |
