Predation risk for animal migrants can be impacted by physical condition. Although size-or condition-based selection is often observed, observing infection-based predation is rare due …
Sick animals may act, look, sound, taste, and smell different than healthy animals. Similarly, habitats harboring infectious agents, or infectious agents themselves, may leave …
Parasitism is ubiquitous in the animal kingdom. Although many fundamental aspects of host- parasite relationships have been unravelled, few studies have systematically investigated …
Wild animals have parasites that can compromise their physiological and/or behavioural performance. Yet, the extent to which parasite load is related to intraspecific variation in …
Context-dependent dispersal allows organisms to seek and settle in habitats improving their fitness. Despite the importance of species interactions in determining fitness, a quantitative …
Fishing-induced evolution (FIE) threatens the ecology, resilience, and economic value of fish populations. Traits under selection, and mechanisms of selection, can be influenced by …
