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

Non‐consumptive predator effects (NCEs) are now widely recognised for their capacity to
shape ecosystem structure and function. Yet, forecasting the propagation of these predator …

Some animal species shift their activity towards increased nocturnality in disturbed habitats
to avoid predominantly diurnal humans. This may alter diel overlap among species, a …

Predation risk, the probability that a prey animal will be killed by a predator, is fundamental
to theoretical and applied ecology. Predation risk varies with animal behavior and …

There is a large and growing interest in non‐consumptive effects (NCEs) of predators.
Diverse and extensive evidence shows that predation risk directly influences prey traits …

Animals balance costs of antipredator behaviors with resource acquisition to minimize
hunting and other mortality risks and maximize their physiological condition. This inherent …

The puma Puma concolor is the fourth largest wild felid and the most widespread native
terrestrial mammal of the Americas. We synthesised published literature documenting the …

The spatial relationship between predator and prey is often conceptualized as a behavioral
response race, in which prey avoid predators while predators track prey. Limiting habitat …

Disease outbreaks induced by humans increasingly threaten wildlife communities
worldwide. Like predators, pathogens can be key top‐down forces in ecosystems, initiating …

Wildlife species may shift towards more nocturnal behavior in areas of higher human
influence, but it is unclear how consistent this shift might be. We investigated how humans …
