Southern Alps
Interspecific and seasonal dietary differences of Himalayan thar, chamois and brushtail possums in the central Southern Alps, New Zealand
... The central Southern Alps is characterised by large seasonal changes in the availability of plants to thar, chamois and possums. Snow reduces the availability of vegetated habitats in winter (Forsyth 2000). ...
