Figure 1. Scent-matching by potential mates. Female rabbits introduced into a male s scent-marked enclosure spend significantly more time (indicated by larger arrow) approaching, investigating and scent-marking near the owner of the enclosure (held behind a mesh barrier) compared to their response to an equivalent male whose odor does not match scent marks in the enclosure. After Engel (1990). Figure 1. Scent-matching by potential mates.

Scent-matching is not the only way that conspecifics might use scent marks to assess an individual s competitive ability and we suggest that it is just one part of a more general mechanism that both competitors and potential mates use to assess the competitive ability of a territory owner, or of a dominant individual in a non-territorial or group-territorial social system. [Pg.213]
