Prey availability influences the effect of boldness on reproductive success in a mammalian predator ...
Boldness is an important trait in wild populations and among-individual differences can link to individual fitness. The strength and direction of relationships between behavioral and life-history traits may however vary according to environmental conditions, where fluctuating selection acting on beh...
