Landscape use by prey: Bottom‐up regulation prevails under reduced predation risk
Ecosphere, Volume 15, Issue 11, November 2024.Abstract Resource specialist herbivores may suppress antipredator strategies to access scarcely available key resources, while proactive antipredator behaviors should be favored by generalists or when resources are abundant. We quantified the relative effects of predation‐ (top‐down) and resource‐driven (bottom‐up) constraints on spatiotemporal ...

Cattle exclusion increases encounters of wild herbivores in Neotropical forests
Journal of Applied Ecology, Volume 61, Issue 10, Page 2444-2454, October 2024.We provide experimental evidence that fences are effective at selectively excluding cattle and increasing encounter rates of wild browsers and fruit consumers in forest patches where these species co‐occur with cattle. Our results highlight an important application of fencing ecology in Neotropical forests, where the implementation of wildlife ...
