Is risk taking during foraging a personality trait? A field test for cross-context consistency in boldness
M Dammhahn, L Almeling - Animal behaviour, 2012 - Elsevier
During foraging, animals have to balance the risk of predation with the energy gain. The
amount of risk animals take for a given resource depends on their energy budget but is …

Sex‐specific effects of fisheries and climate on the demography of sexually dimorphic seabirds
Many animal taxa exhibit sex‐specific variation in ecological traits, such as foraging and
distribution. These differences could result in sex‐specific responses to change, but such …
