Background
Most of my work is focussed on foraging ecology, life history and population ecology of ungulates. I am also interested in the impact of herbivores on the ecosystems - such as plants, invertebrates and small rodents. Apart from ungulate research, I work a little bit also with effects of climate on ecological systems in general.
