Uncertainty about predation risk: a conceptual review

AL Crane, LEA Feyten, AA Preagola… - Biological …, 2024 - Wiley Online Library
Uncertainty has long been of interest to economists and psychologists and has more
recently gained attention among ecologists. In the ecological world, animals must regularly …

Olfactory cues of risk and visual cues of safety interact with sympatry and phylogeny in shaping behavioral responses by littoral fishes

BD Wisenden, AA Andebrhan, CM Anderson… - Behavioral Ecology and …, 2023 - Springer
Prey incorporate information about risk, safety, and the reliability of both of these cues when
assessing risk of predation. Here, we report results of an experiment testing avoidance of …

Social information-mediated population dynamics in non-grouping prey

Z Tóth, G Kőmüves - Behavioral Ecology and Sociobiology, 2022 - Springer
Inadvertent social information (ISI) use, ie, the exploitation of social cues including the
presence and behaviour of others, has been predicted to mediate population-level …

[PDF][PDF] THE EFFECT OF UNCERTAIN PREDATION RISK ON THE EXPRESSION OF NEOPHOBIA IN CONVICT CICHILDS ARCHOCENTRUS NIGROFASCIATUS

AA Preagola - 2024 - harvest.usask.ca
Predation exerts a pervasive and unforgiving selection pressure such that it can influence
prey life history, morphology, physiology, and behaviour. The combined effects of climate …

The effects of polyethylene microplastics on the growth, behaviour and cognition of juvenile convict cichlids

MEL Felismino - 2023 - spectrum.library.concordia.ca
Microplastics, plastic particles between 0.0001 and 5 mm in diameter, are ubiquitous in the
environment and are known to be consumed by organisms, leading to a variety of adverse …

Effects of physical activity on the production of disturbance cues in Trinidadian guppies (Poecilia reticulata)

D Cao Van Truong - 2022 - spectrum.library.concordia.ca
Disturbance cues are metabolic byproducts that are argued to function as 'early warning
signals' where both the senders and receivers can benefit from their release. These …

Effects of Elevated Predation Risk on Female Mate Selection and Maternal Effects in Trinidadian guppies

A Dayanandan - 2022 - spectrum.library.concordia.ca
Predation carries a number of non-consumptive ie non-lethal behavioural effects over daily,
seasonal, yearly, and generational time scales through which population-level changes in …

Constraints of background risk on space use and learning in Trinidadian guppies

J Allan - 2022 - spectrum.library.concordia.ca
Predators affect prey populations by driving prey to adopt costly antipredator strategies.
Spatial neophobia mitigates the risks of novel spaces by reducing space use and is …
