Modelling the Distribution of the European Polecat Mustela Putorius in a Mediterranean Agricultural Landscape
RÉSUMÉ. — Modélisation de la distribution du Putois Mustela putorius dans un paysage agricole méditerranéen. — L’objectif de ce travail est d’évaluer la distribution du Putois dans une région du sud du Portugal, en identifi ant les descripteurs d’environnement dont il dépend et en comparant les résultats de deux méthodes différentes d’analyse de la distribution de l’espèce. La première de ces m...
متن کاملKin recognition versus familiarity in a solitary mustelid, the European polecat Mustela putorius.
The aim of this experimental study was to investigate kin discrimination in the polecat and to analyse the ontogeny of interactions. Juvenile polecats (ten males and nine females) had been raised under four distinct experimental conditions: 1, kin, familiar; 2, kin, unfamiliar; 3, non-kin, familiar; 4, non-kin, unfamiliar. During dyadic encounters between polecats in neutral enclosures, the num...
متن کاملBayesian analysis of hybridization and introgression between the endangered european mink (Mustela lutreola) and the polecat (Mustela putorius).
Human-mediated global change will probably increase the rates of natural hybridization and genetic introgression between closely related species, and this will have major implications for conservation of the taxa involved. In this study, we analyse both mitochondrial and nuclear data to characterize ongoing hybridization and genetic introgression between two sympatric sister species of mustelid...
متن کاملTime budget as related to feeding tactics of European polecat Mustela putorius.
The time budget of five male and four female European polecats was studied in western France through radiotracking surveys. Their activity level averaged 7 h and 31 min without any significant differences between males and females. However two phases, foraging and travelling, were not similarly distributed in both sexes. Despite a strong sexual dimorphism, females spent more time foraging than ...
متن کاملFeed consumption and food passage time in mink (Mustela vison) and European ferrets (Mustela putorius furo).
The amount of feed consumed per day and the rate of food passage was measured in mink and European ferrets. Daily feed consumption averaged 40 and 42 g dry matter per kg body weight for male mink and ferrets and 53 and 49 g dry matter per kg body weight for female mink and ferrets, respectively. Using ferric oxide as a feed marker, no differences were observed in food passage time between mink ...
