Immunity determines an organism’s sensitivity to pathogens and parasites and thus represent a crucial function that affects survival of individuals in the wild. However, this function represents several energy costs for development and use, and in natural conditions, resources are limited. Organisms consequently face energy allocation trade-offs between costly functions such as immunity, growth or reproduction. On the long term, these allocations are supposed to have serious consequences on probability of individuals to reproduce and to survive at each age.The aim of this thesis was to describe age-related variations of immune phenotype in a wild and long-lived mammal, the roe deer (Capreolus capreolus), and to provide a better understandin...
