Abstract

The web of environmental relationships into which an animal population is woven undergoes almost continuous change, both as the animals go through almost continuous change, both as the animals go through their life history stages and change their own properties, and as their environment changes seasonally and over longer periods of time. The environmental pressures operating on the fetus, the recently born precocial young, and the fully grown small mammal in winter are very different in terms of the food sources, weather patterns, predators, pathogens, and competitors which influence each.
