Soay sheep : dynamics and selection in an island population /

'Soay Sheep' synthesises a detailed study of demography & dynamics in a naturally regulated population of animals. The Soay sheep population of Hirta in the St Kilda archipelago show persistent oscillations, of often up to 60% increase or decline year onyear. This text examines the cau...
