While hiking through the mountains during the fall, you notice that many of the elk are grouped with one male to many females, and it appears that those males with more points and larger racks tend to have more females in their group than males with fewer points and smaller racks. Is this an example of natural selection or sexual selection, and why? Choose one answer.

Sexual selection: if these males mate with each female, then the males with more points, larger racks will reproduce better; this is not necessarily be adaptive; will be determined by the individual

Natural Selection: these males are reproducing more, which is adaptive, and their rack size could be influenced by abiotic and/or biotic factors such as forage availability

Sexual Selection: these males are reproducing more, which is adaptive, and their rack size could be influenced by abiotic and/or biotic factors such as forage availability
