Scent marking prairie vole

The third hypothesis states that age-matched, same-sex prairie voles over-mark and adjacent-mark the scent marks of unfamiliar nonsiblings more than those of familiar siblings. Support for this hypothesis may indicate that prairie voles are using over-marking and adjacent-marking as competitive tactics to insure that they are the top-scent donor in an area. If so, the bottom-scent donor is more likely to be an unfamiliar nonsibling rather than a familiar sibling. This hypothesis is tested in a study on prairie voles (Kohli Ferkin, in press). [Pg.241]
