Sentenced without trial: reviling and revamping the Resource Dispersion Hypothesis
Article Abstract:
The Resource Dispersion Hypothesis (RHD) offers a predictive model for how some animals, in heterogeneous environment, may form groups even without any direct benefits from doing so. The positive findings in support of the Resource Dispersion Hypothesis (RDH) are discussed.
