    <p>Killing promotes the coexistence of alternative reproductive tactics in males of the same species. Males of many species adopt either an aggressive ‘fighter’ or a competition-evading ‘sneaker’ tactic to gain access to females to mate. Fighter and sneaker coexistence is promoted by differences in their life histories. Using a theoretical approach, we show that sneakers and fighters can coexist under an even wider range of conditions if fighters kill competitor fighters in conflicts. Here the MatLab code can be downloaded<br></p
