Effect of food limitation and reproductive activity on fecal glucocorticoid metabolite levels in banded mongooses
BACKGROUND: Glucocorticoids mediate responses to perceived stressors, thereby restoring homeostasis. However, prolonged glucocorticoid elevation may cause homeostatic overload. Using extensive field investigations of banded mongoose (Mungos mungo) groups in northern Botswana, we assessed the influen...
