Abstract
⺠We studied den use in an obligate monogamous mammal, the aardwolf. ⺠Den use related to predictions from polygamous mating rather than social monogamy. ⺠Aardwolves may simultaneously exhibit social monogamy and polygamous mating. ⺠The evolution of these two conflicting strategies must be further investigated.
