Patterns of coexistence between two mesocarnivores in presence of anthropogenic disturbances in Western Himalaya.

Species' coexistence depends on species-specific resource utilization in a given habitat. Human disturbances in this context can constrain the realized niche by altering their community dynamics. In this study, we considered Western Himalaya as a case study to test the hypothesis that human disturbances influence mesocarnivore coexistence patterns.
