Functional responses in habitat selection occur when individuals adjust their selection of habitat features as a function of the availability of those features. Functional responses in habitat selection are generally assumed to be fitness-rewarding tactics and are used to guide conservation actions. Fitness consequences of functional responses, however, have rarely been evaluated. 2. Eighty-three caribou were followed with GPS collars to establish the link between functional responses in habitat selection and adult female survival, a strong fitness correlate for caribou. We measured how caribou avoidance of mixed/deciduous stands and 6–20-year-old clearcuts varied with the proportion of 6–20-year-old clearcuts within their 100% minimal convex polygon (MCP), and if these functional responses were linked to survival. Mixed/deciduous stands and 6–20-year-old clearcuts are risky for caribou because they are selected by moose, thereby attracting wolves and increasing predation risk for caribou. 3. Caribou avoided mixed/deciduous stands, especially when 6–20-year-old clearcuts comprised a large proportion of their MCP, but this functional response did not differ between caribou that died and those that survived. When the proportion of 6–20-year-old clearcuts in the MCP was low, caribou generally had low odds of occurring near 6–20-year-old clearcuts.

Data_Losier_et_al_JAPPL 1. Functional responses in habitat selection occur when individuals adjust their selection of habitat features as a function of the availability of those features. Functional responses in habitat selection are generally assumed to be fitness-rewarding tactics and are used to guide conservation actions.
