Abstract
► Male responses to sperm competition and their fitness effects were studied in mice. ► Different social environments had no effect on mating behaviour and paternity success. ► Males that had evolved via polygamy had increased mating durations and P2 values. ► Thus, these males had enhanced fitness compared to males from monogamous populations.
