Resumo de Recurso
The Lion`s mane
main objectives
1. why do lions have manes?
2. scientists think manes must have some specialised function because are unique to lions.
3. determine if the mane function is male-male competition, or mate choice, or both.
4. importance of mane characteristics (length and darkness)
5. sexual selection and behavior.
6. why don't all males have the same mane
methods
Scientists started with different ideas as a guide
1. the mane is sexual dimorphic
theory sexual selection / selective traits
characterisics evolve under the stress of competition for mates
2. the mane develops at puberty
3. is variable within and between populations
previous information
sexual selected traits increase reproductive success
1. male-male competition
armor
weapons
mate choice
male condition
mane might function in 3 ways
shield against injury
fighting sign
nutrition status
two hypotheses
mane area as a target on fights and wounds will be found there
wounds in mane are more fatal
photographic achieves- changes in mane
iidentify ecological trends
behaviour among males and females by length and darkness
Dummies
life-sized toy lions
1. (short, dark mane)
2. (short, blond mane)
3. (long, dark mane)
4. (long, blond mane)
results
hypotheses
eliminate the wounds that were not inflicted by other lions
it didnt support the mane-as shield hypotheses
wounds in mane area were not more lethal than in other parts of the body
photographic
develop their mane under 1 year and during that time the main gains pigment until the color becomes more stable
Dummies
females prefer dark manes
manes acts as a signal to the lions
males were sensitive to mane darkness, avoid the darker dummie
male sensitive to mane length, avoided too
mane length indicate short quality in the form of fighting success
Analysis
males with better features are better competitors
females chose the male by the benefits of the offspring
ecological factors
mane length
injured males are less able for fighting
manes length, little relation to dominance
mane darkness
higher levels of testosterone, more aggressive
provide information for other lions.
male dominance, female race
less likely to be wounded, protection
why don't all males have dark mane?
Temperature
lions with dark mane would be affected by heatstress
Global warming
