Abstract:
:Plasma testosterone (T), prolactin (PRL), and behavior were monitored concurrently in free-living male California ground squirrels (Spermophilus beecheyi). Male plasma T peaked in January, 2-3 months after males emerged from their annual period of estivation. PRL peaked 6 to 10 weeks after T. Temporal patterns of space use by males were directly correlated with plasma T levels, but seasonal maxima in rates of most monitored male behaviors occurred 4 weeks after the T peak. No monitored behavior rates were correlated with plasma PRL values. Yearling and adult males did not differ with respect to circulating levels of either T or PRL. Both groups of males mated in our study population, and did not differ significantly with respect to rates of most monitored behaviors. However, yearlings pursued fewer females, mated less frequently, and required more mounts to complete each copulation than did adults. We suggest that T serves an important priming function for various seasonally fluctuating behaviors, but also that mating experience might influence the efficiency of copulatory behavior in this species.
