- W2022163587 abstract "Most ungulates are gregarious species and outside the mating season are typically observed in single-sex groups. However little is known about the mechanisms underlying social segregation between sexes. We investigated the effect of conspecific attraction on individual spacing between unrestrained merino sheep Ovis aries and confined conspecifics. We considered differences between males and females and whether attractiveness of the confined conspecifics depends on their sex. A series of binary choice experiments was conducted in a large outdoor arena, located in pastures. One or two stimulus animals were placed in small individual cages (1.5 m x 1 m) on opposite sides of the arena. Sheep were tested with one fixed peer of the same or opposite sex vs an empty cage, and with two fixed peers of either the same sex as themselves, or one male and one female. Sheep in a control condition were exposed to two empty cages. In all of the test conditions, confined sheep were highly attractive. Males were more attracted by single stimulus peers of the same than the opposite sex, whereas females did not display such a preference. Sheep confronted with two restrained conspecifics tended to remain between the stimuli. This also occurred when the stimuli were of opposite sex, although the males tended to be located nearer the same-sex peer. Our findings can explain the strong aggregative behaviour of merino sheep, but also the social segregation previously observed in a mixed-sex group through higher attraction for same-sex than opposite-sex peers in males." @default.
