Taking the African buffalo as an example, this study looks at how populations of the same species, even when they live close by, can show marked differences. Topics covered include: the effects of ecology on social organization; competition for food; and predation risk.

Distribution of resources in time and space; food for the buffalo; social organization of buffalo cows; social organization of buffalo bulls; population dynamics, catastrophes and stability; competition for food; patch selection - predators and grazing by "rule of thumb"; selecting grazing grounds - a case of voting; the effects of ecology on social organization; appendix - protein and energy requirements.
