Global Field Program (GFP) graduate Michael Haughwout '23 of Matawan, New Jersey, was published in Green Teacher magazine. "While studying Cheetah conservation practices in Namibia, I was able to ...
Mathematical modelling has long provided critical insights into the complex interactions between predators and their prey. Traditional approaches, such as the Lotka–Volterra model, lay the foundation ...
Animal survival depends on effective attack and defense strategies, yet how these behaviors arise remains unclear. Addressing this question, a recent study shows that predator and prey behaviors ...
Ant‐eating spiders represent a fascinating model of trophic specialisation and adaptive evolution. These predators exhibit a narrow dietary spectrum (myrmecophagy), targeting specific ant taxa by ...
When asked for the best place on a body of water to be fishing or the best bait to be using, I reply with a question: What are the fish eating? A basic understanding of predator/prey relationships is ...
The hunt is on and a predator finally zeroes in on its prey. The animal consumes the nutritious meal and moves on to forage for its next target. But how much prey does a predator need to consume?
Researchers used computational simulations to demonstrate how simple sensing and movement rules—such as detection of distance and speed changes—constrain predator–prey interactions. In a simplified ...
