The marking behavior of goitered gazelles is closely related to the territorial behavior of males, who mark boundaries and sometimes points within their territory. Marking with urine and pellets, the preorbital gland, by butting shrubs and ground, as well as vocalization are used as territorial markers. The role of the inguinal, carpal, and interdigital glands is still unclear in the life of goitered gazelles.

摘要

The marking behavior of goitered gazelles is closely related to the territorial behavior of males, who mark boundaries and sometimes points within their territory. Marking with urine and pellets, the preorbital gland, by butting shrubs and ground, as well as vocalization are used as territorial markers. The role of the inguinal, carpal, and interdigital glands is still unclear in the life of goitered gazelles.
