“…These latter two ideas have been formally expressed by models of contest behaviour that stress information gathering as a strategic requirement [2,3], and several studies have shown that this is the case. For example, difference in antler size predicts whether roe deer will escalate to fighting [10], while third-party males use discrepancy in antler size between fighting opponents to decide whether to intervene in contests [70]. A key feature of the signal value of these structures involves the cost of production with individuals experiencing physiological exhaustion during the growth phase [28,32].…”
