Predation risk, gender and the group size effect: does elk vigilance depend upon the behaviour of conspecifics?
MJ Childress, MA Lung - Animal behaviour, 2003 - Elsevier
Many animals benefit from the presence of conspecifics by reducing their rate of scanning
for predators while increasing their time spent foraging. This group size effect could arise …
