Landscapes of fear: spatial patterns of risk perception and response

KM Gaynor, JS Brown, AD Middleton, ME Power… - Trends in ecology & …, 2019 - cell.com
Animals experience varying levels of predation risk as they navigate heterogeneous
landscapes, and behavioral responses to perceived risk can structure ecosystems. The …

The context dependence of non‐consumptive predator effects

AJ Wirsing, MR Heithaus, JS Brown, BP Kotler… - Ecology …, 2021 - Wiley Online Library
Non‐consumptive predator effects (NCEs) are now widely recognised for their capacity to
shape ecosystem structure and function. Yet, forecasting the propagation of these predator …

Why are there so many explanations for primate brain evolution?

RIM Dunbar, S Shultz - … of the Royal Society B: Biological …, 2017 - royalsocietypublishing.org
The question as to why primates have evolved unusually large brains has received much
attention, with many alternative proposals all supported by evidence. We review the main …

Diel predator activity drives a dynamic landscape of fear

MT Kohl, DR Stahler, MC Metz… - Ecological …, 2018 - Wiley Online Library
A “landscape of fear”(LOF) is a map that describes continuous spatial variation in an
animal's perception of predation risk. The relief on this map reflects, for example, places that …

A dynamic Brownian bridge movement model to estimate utilization distributions for heterogeneous animal movement

B Kranstauber, R Kays, SD LaPoint… - Journal of Animal …, 2012 - Wiley Online Library
The recently developed Brownian bridge movement model (BBMM) has advantages over
traditional methods because it quantifies the utilization distribution of an animal based on its …

A multispecies occupancy model for two or more interacting species

CT Rota, MAR Ferreira, RW Kays… - Methods in Ecology …, 2016 - Wiley Online Library
Species occurrence is influenced by environmental conditions and the presence of other
species. Current approaches for multispecies occupancy modelling are practically limited to …

Human activity helps prey win the predator-prey space race

TB Muhly, C Semeniuk, A Massolo, L Hickman… - PLoS one, 2011 - journals.plos.org
Predator-prey interactions, including between large mammalian wildlife species, can be
represented as a “space race”, where prey try to minimize and predators maximize spatial …

Trade‐offs between predation risk and forage differ between migrant strategies in a migratory ungulate

M Hebblewhite, EH Merrill - Ecology, 2009 - Wiley Online Library
Trade‐offs between predation risk and forage fundamentally drive resource selection by
animals. Among migratory ungulates, trade‐offs can occur at large spatial scales through …

Minimizing predation risk in a landscape of multiple predators: effects on the spatial distribution of African ungulates

M Thaker, AT Vanak, CR Owen, MB Ogden… - Ecology, 2011 - Wiley Online Library
Studies that focus on single predator–prey interactions can be inadequate for understanding
antipredator responses in multi‐predator systems. Yet there is still a general lack of …

Mapping attack hotspots to mitigate human–carnivore conflict: approaches and applications of spatial predation risk modeling

JRB Miller - Biodiversity and Conservation, 2015 - Springer
A major challenge in carnivore conservation worldwide is identifying priority human–
carnivore conflict sites where mitigation efforts would be most effective. Spatial predation risk …
