Sentence examples for predator behaviour from inspiring English sources

Patterns of predator behaviour provided no evidence that caseless larvae have alternative means of defence.

That is where François and Neil come in: biologists working to understand predator behaviour and solve the problems without simply shooting the carnivores.

Individual variation in prey preference is likely to be important but we have little information on this aspect of predator behaviour.

Phillips, B. L., Greenlees, M. J., Brown, G. P. & Shine, R. Predator behaviour and morphology mediates the impact of an invasive species: cane toads and death adders in Australia.

Taphonomic analysis indicates that primarily the European eagle owl (Bubo bubo) and the kestrel (Falco tinnunculus) were responsible for accumulating the material, and allows us to quantify the potential taxonomic bias resulting from predator behaviour which includes a preference for voles, particularly the water vole (Arvicola terrestris).

Examination of predator behaviours and per capita consumption rates, in addition to the full suite of predator environments, is essential to fully understand dynamics among multiple conspecific and interspecific predators, particularly when predator species forage on dissimilar time scales.

Predator species that operate on different time scales of predation may have independent multiple predator effects on prey even when changes to individual predator behaviours or per capita consumption rates occur.

The change in the type of predator from more specialized in the north to more generalist in the south may not be strictly due to a change in the predator community, but also to a change in predator behaviours.

Thus, in climbing vines (i.e. low predation risk) anti-predator behaviour was reduced and vine foraging was increased in the shade, while in prostrate vines (i.e. high predation risk) both anti-predator behaviour and vine foraging were greater in the shade (Gianoli et al. 2007) (Fig.  1).

Given the likely high rate of natural mortality inflicted by N. cepedianus on M. antarcticus in Norfolk Bay [21], movement into the water column at night could also be anti-predator behaviour, as fine-scale movement may mitigate predation risk [53] [56].
