Shared predators between primate groups and mixed species bird flocks: the potential for forest‐wide eavesdropping networks
A basic tenet of animal behavior is that animal groupings (eg schools of fishes or flocks of
birds) are widely influenced by predators. Many studies have focused on communication …
