“…Alternatively, commonly occurring smaller ('sneaker') males seek reproductive opportunities alongside large, dominant and territorially behaving males (Eberhard, 1980;Thornhill & Alcock, 1983;Gross, 1985;Crespi, 1988;Danforth, 1991). Size-dependent strategies also can be connected to dispersal (Dingle et al, 1980;Derr et al, 1981;Gonzaga & Vasconcellos-Neto, 2001), whereby smaller individuals are usually assumed to be competitively inferior and thus disperse, whereas larger ones behave philopatrically (Lawrence, 1987;Hanski et al, 1991). Nevertheless, this also can be reversed so that larger individuals disperse further than smaller conspecifics due to larger energy reserves (Anholt, 1990;O'Riain et al, 1996;Léna et al, 1998;Gundersen et al, 2002;Barbraud et al, 2003).…”
