Total number of tagged animals = 16
There are two sessions, with 8 pairs each
In both sessions, 8 will be dominant and 8 will be subordinate
Out of the 8 subordinates from session 1, 5 stayed subordinates in session 2
=> 3 became dominant
Session 2 has 8 dominant animals, of which 3 switched from subordinate to dominant
Number of dominant animals in session 2 who were already dominant in session 1 = total dominants in session 2 − who became dominant = 8 - 3 = 5

In the wildlife reserve study, 16 animals were paired in two separate tracking sessions, with each session assigning 8 animals as dominant and 8 as subordinate. Of the 8 animals that were subordinate in the first session, 5 remained subordinate in the second session, meaning the other 3 became dominant. Since only 8 animals can be dominant in the second session, and 3 of them came from the previously subordinate group, the remaining 5 dominant animals in the second session must have already been dominant in the first session as well. Therefore, 5 animals were dominant in both sessions.

**Solution:**
We have 16 animals observed in two sessions. In each session, they're paired into 8 dominant-subordinate pairs.
**Given:**
- 5 animals were subordinate in both sessions.
**Calculations:**
1. **First Session:**
- Subordinate animals (S1): 8
- Dominant animals (D1): 8
2. **Second Session:**
- Subordinate animals (S2): 8
- Dominant animals (D2): 8
3. **Overlap:**
- Animals subordinate in both sessions (S1 ∩ S2) = 5
- Therefore, animals subordinate in first session but dominant in second (S1 ∩ D2) = 8 - 5 = 3
4. **Dominant in Both Sessions:**
- Total dominant in first session (D1) = 8
- Some of these were subordinate in second session (D1 ∩ S2)
- Since total subordinate in second session (S2) = 8, and 5 were from S1, then D1 ∩ S2 = 3
- Thus, dominant in both sessions (D1 ∩ D2) = 8 - 3 = 5
**Final Answer:**
\[
\boxed{5}
\]
This shows 5 animals were dominant in both tracking sessions. The numbers consistently add up to the total of 16 animals when considering all possible role combinations.
