Environmental harshness requires different resource strategies in ewes: A simulation study

Key Points

• The study aims to explore how environmental harshness influences resource strategies in ewes through simulation models.
• Simulation analysis of ewes in varying environmental conditions
• Comparison of resource allocation strategies
• Assessment of adaptive behaviors in response to environmental factors
• Different resource strategies were identified based on environmental harshness levels
• Ewes demonstrated adaptive responses to optimize resource use
• Findings indicate the importance of environmental factors in shaping resource strategies
