The findings of this study support several ideas relevant to the interpretation of evolutionary patterns among cooperative species. First, the reproductive costs of delaying reproduction may not be as high as previously assumed in some cooperative species if, as in females of this species, birds delaying breeding tend to live longer than birds reproducing at maturity. Second, as demonstrated by inter-sexual difli:rences in the reaction of birds to varied levels of breeder saturation, behavioral responses to ecological constraints may depend on life-history pattem. 2014-08-13T14:20:55Z 2014-08-13T14:20:55Z 2003 Master Thesis Masters MSc http://hdl.handle.net/11427/6268 eng application/pdf Department of Biological Sciences Faculty of Science University of Cape Town |
