How rainfall variation influences reproductive patterns of African Savanna ungulates in an equatorial region where photoperiod variation is absent

In high temperate latitudes, ungulates generally give birth within a narrow time window when conditions are optimal for offspring survival in spring or early summer, and use changing photoperiod to time conceptions so as to anticipate these conditions. However, in low tropical latitudes day length v...
