Risk-induced fear effects exerted by top predators are pervasive in terrestrial and marine
systems, with lasting impacts on ecosystem structure and function. The loss of top predators …

Many large coastal sharks are vulnerable to population declines, however, conflict with
human activities often results in unselective culls. Successfully and non-destructively …

Establishing diets and dietary generalism in marine top predators is critical for
understanding their ecological roles and responses to environmental fluctuations. Nutrition …
