Only the largest terrestrial carnivores increase their dietary breadth with increasing prey richness
Animals should adapt their foraging habits, changing their dietary breadth in response to
variation in the richness and availability of food resources. Understanding how species …

Factors affecting the prey preferences of jackals (Canidae)
Prey selection by carnivores can be affected by top-down and bottom-up factors. For
example, large carnivores may facilitate food resources for mesocarnivores by providing …

A meta-analysis of ungulate predation and prey selection by the brown bear Ursus arctos in Eurasia
At the biogeographic scale, spatial variation in diets may reflect not only the ecological
flexibility of carnivore feeding habits, but also evolutionary adaptations of different …
