Dynamic landscapes of fear: understanding spatiotemporal risk
The landscape of fear (LOF) concept posits that prey navigate spatial heterogeneity in
perceived predation risk, balancing risk mitigation against other activities necessary for …

Predation risk and mountain goat reproduction: Evidence for stress‐induced breeding suppression in a wild ungulate
Non‐consumptive effects of predation can strongly impact reproduction and demography of
prey species. Still, the underlying mechanisms that drive non‐consumptive effects are not …

“Ecology of fear” in ungulates: Opportunities for improving conservation
Because ungulates are important contributors to ecosystem function, understanding the
“ecology of fear” could be important to the conservation of ecosystems. Although studying …

Effects of wolves on elk and cattle behaviors: implications for livestock production and wolf conservation
Background In many areas, livestock are grazed within wolf (Canis lupus) range. Predation
and harassment of livestock by wolves creates conflict and is a significant challenge for wolf …

Where and when to hunt? Decomposing predation success of an ambush carnivore
Predator–prey games emerge when predators and prey dynamically respond to the
behavior of one another, driving the outcomes of predator–prey interactions. Predation …

African ungulates and their drinking problems: hunting and predation risks constrain access to water
WG Crosmary, M Valeix, H Fritz, H Madzikanda… - Animal Behaviour, 2012 - Elsevier
Prey make several behavioural adjustments to minimize the risk of predation by their natural
predators. When hunted, however, they may have to adjust their behaviour further or …

Resource Selection and Movements by Female Mule Deer Odocoileus hemionus: Effects of Reproductive Stage
Recent declines of mule deer Odocoileus hemionus, ostensibly a result of low rates of
recruitment, highlight the importance of understanding relationships between parturient …

Human visitation limits the utility of protected areas as ecological baselines
WM Sarmento, J Berger - Biological Conservation, 2017 - Elsevier
A key goal of protected areas is the conservation of biodiversity. Increasing visitation,
however, can compromise ecological integrity. A fundamental conundrum is that if parks are …

When to run and when to hide: the influence of concealment, visibility, and proximity to refugia on perceptions of risk
An animal's ability to avoid predation likely depends on its ability to detect approaching
predators, conceal itself, and seek refuge or protection from predators. Habitat, especially …

Habitat selection predicts genetic relatedness in an alpine ungulate
Landscape heterogeneity plays an integral role in sha** ecological and evolutionary
processes. Despite links between the two disciplines, ecologists and population geneticists …
