We assessed the influence of terrain variables on the occupancy of the little red brocket deer (Mazama rufina) in the Central Andes of Colombia. Occupancy increased with elevation up to 3000, where it starts decreasing. This information is crucial to predict the potential effects of climate change on M. rufina and other mountain species.
Evaluamos la influencia de variables del terreno sobre la ocupación del venado soche en los Andes centrales de Colombia. La ocupación aumenta con la elevación hasta los 3000 m y por encima de este valor decrece. Esta información es crucial para predecir los posibles efectos del cambio climático sobre M. rufina y otras especies de montaña.
