nana having greater niche breadth, which may permit or facilitate coexistence. Odocoileina tend to be nocturnal, while Blastocerina tend to be diurnal, which suggests that phylogeny may influence species coexistence. Furthermore, the species tended to overlap with respect to diet. These ...
We classified diurnal (activity during day), nocturnal (activity during night), and crepuscular (activity during twilight) patterns; the classification was defined as cathemeral when no differences were observed among the three time periods (Bennie et al. 2014; Ikeda et al. 2016). We used one...
Emaciated orphans should be fed every 15 minutes for 1 or 2 hours until they have regained their strength. Feedings should then be extended to half-hour intervals and eventually hourly intervals. Diurnal orphans can be fed from 7 am until 7 pm. Nocturnal species are generally fed on a simil...
Moon phase had no influence on movement rates (P≥ .15) or the interaction between time period and moon phase (P≥ .25). Female movement rates during spring (F1,699= 13.74,P< .01) and summer (F1,610= 42.39,P< .01; Table1) were influenced by time period (i.e., diurnal and no...
So too, it may be said of the stellar buffalo that they walk across a plain covered in the nocturnal "grass" sown by the Nightspirits. Where are the "swamps" located? The Sun is thought to have risen and set at the eastern and western edges of the flat Earth. At the edge of the...

Mule deer diurnal movement rates, when hunters are active on the landscape, were higher during the hunting period versus pre‐hunt or scout periods. In contrast, nocturnal movement rates, when hunters are inactive on the landscape, were similar between hunting and non‐hunting periods. Additionally...
Our results show that clade assignment was the main predictor of diurnal versus nocturnal activity, thus suggesting a phylogenetic constraint rather than any other ecological influence on circadian activity. We discuss how the evolutionary history of both lineages may have influenced their activity ...
In habitats with a patchy vegetation structure the home ranges were used more uniformly, whereas in habitats with a distinct separation of large woods and meadows home ranges show diurnal and nocturnal activity centres respectively.doi:10.1007/BF00346833B. Georgii...
Mousedeer diel activity patterns shifted towards increased nocturnality in degraded forests, possibly to avoid interactions with diurnal humans. Taken together, mousedeer prefer wet lowland forests and they persist – but decline – in degraded habitats and near humans. One exception was degraded ...
