The invasion of alien species is an important cause of biodiversity loss worldwide, and many
mammals are considered successful invaders outside their former range, with recognized …

Snakes are known as highly fear-evoking animals, eliciting preferential attention and fast
detection in humans. We examined the human fear response to snakes in the context of both …

Snakes present a hazard to primates, both as active predators and by defensive
envenomation. This risk might have been a selective pressure on the evolution of primate …

Coastal areas prone to flooding are relatively neglected in primate studies. Eight out of 29
known populations of Critically Endangered Sapajus flavius occur in areas very close to, or …

The threat of predation by snakes is considered to have played a significant role in the
evolution of primate sensory systems and behavior. However, we know relatively little about …

The Turkey Vulture (Cathartes aura) is a soaring, obligate scavenger with the most extensive
distribution of any New World vulture (Cathartidae), ranging from southern Canada to …

Although primate predation is rarely observed, a series of primate anti-predation strategies
have been described. Energetic costs of such strategies can vary from high-cost mobbing …

A review of predation by Boa constrictor (Squamata: Boidae): what, when, and where Page 1

Anti‐predator behavior can inform how animals classify potential threats and which cognitive
mechanisms might be involved in risk assessment. Snakes are common predators for many …

We lay out mass-bulk theory (MBT)—relationships for gape-limited predators among relative
prey mass (RPM), relative prey bulk (RPB), prey shape, prey taxon, and feeding frequency …
