Prey handling processes are considered a dominant mechanism leading to short‐term
positive indirect effects between prey that share a predator. However, a growing body of …

Background Fine-scale data on animal position are increasingly enabling us to understand
the details of animal movement ecology and dead-reckoning, a technique integrating motion …

The functional response is at the core of any predator-prey interactions as it establishes the
link between trophic levels. The use of inaccurate functional response can profoundly affect …

The strength of indirect biotic interactions is difficult to quantify in the wild and can alter
community composition. To investigate whether the presence of a prey species affects the …

Long-distance dispersal plays a key role in species distribution and persistence. However,
its movement metrics and ecological implications may differ whether it is undertaken by …

Background Understanding what animals do in time and space is important for a range of
ecological questions, however accurate estimates of how animals use space is challenging …

Predation shapes communities through consumptive and non‐consumptive effects. In the
latter case, prey respond to perceived predation risk through proactive or reactive risk …

Large gulls are generalist predators that play an important role in Arctic food webs.
Describing the migratory patterns and phenology of these predators is essential to …

Garbage may cause substantial environmental perturbations, in part because of its
consumption by wildlife. Such consumption may have direct health implications for animals …

There is a change in many features of biology in reptiles, birds, and mammals (inhabitants of
oceanic islands), which is called “island syndrome.” The behavioral aspect of these changes …
