Sierra Nevada bighorn sheep confront variation in stressors and resources throughout spring migrations between low-elevation winter range and high-elevation summer range (left). For some individuals, spring migration follows a unidirectional, undistracted path (right, tan), whereas for others multiple up-and-down movements slow down the mean pace of vertical redistribution (blue). For yet other individuals, wintertime residency at high elevations leads to consistent use of a narrower range of elevational strata throughout the spring (black).
