predators or rivals. As vigilance is costly, models predict that it should increase when the risk …

As human development intensifies in northern ecosystems, negative impacts of
anthropogenic disturbances on wildlife could increase. Many caribou and reindeer …

Biomonitoring is vital for establishing baseline data that is needed to identify and quantify
ecological change and to inform management and conservation activities. However …

Though morphologically very similar, equids across the extant species occupy ecological
niches that are surprisingly non-overlapping. Occupancy of these distinct niches appears …

Simple Summary Predation can have a major impact on animal populations, and yet the
factors that affect susceptibility to predation among species are poorly understood given that …

Group-size effects, whereby antipredator vigilance decreases as group size increases, are
widely reported in mammals and birds but a meta-analysis has only been conducted in …

Predator avoidance depends on prey being able to discern how risk varies in space and
time, but this is made considerably more complicated if risk is simultaneously present from …
