Abstract

Mineral lick elevation, size, and distance to the closest human community are all associated with mammal and bird species visitations. The most frequently hunted licks have similar species assemblages. Results indicate high variability in species assemblages at different mineral licks suggesting different species-specific resource needs at different licks.
