The (De)Stabilizing effect of juvenile prey cannibalism in a stage-structured model
Cannibalism, or intraspecific predation, is the act of an organism consuming another organism of the same species. In predator-prey relationships, there is experimental evidence to support the existence of cannibalism among juvenile prey.

On the theory of cannibalization
A continuum structure function is a nondecreasing mapping from the nonnegative orthant to the nonnegative real numbers which determines the state of a system from the states of its components. It is supposed that the various components can be divided into types such that only components of the same type may be interchanged.

Isogroup Selection to Optimize Biocontrol Increases Cannibalism in Omnivorous (Zoophytophagous) Bugs
Zoophytophagous insects can substitute animals for plant resources when prey is scarce. Many arthropods feed on conspecifics to survive in these conditions.

Abstract Scientists have been captivated by the ability to regenerate, focusing on uncovering the mechanisms of epimorphic regeneration and applying them to human medicine. The axolotl (Ambystoma mexicanum) has become the most intensively studied model in tetrapod regeneration research, particularly concerning limb regeneration.

Edible insects offer a sustainable protein source, requiring fewer resources than traditional livestock. Despite challenges, they have the potential to enhance food security and sustainability for a growing global population. ABSTRACT As the world faces an escalating protein crisis amid climate change, population growth, and resource scarcity, edible ...

ABOUT eighteen months ago, just previous to my leaving India, at Devalah in the Wynaad, the horsekeepers chased and killed a large cobra, 5 feet 4 inches; previous to death it was thrown down in front of the door of our house, when, after a good deal of twisting and wavy contortion of the body, it disgorged a small rock snake over 4 feet in length.

Cannibalism in insects plays an important role in ecological relationships. Nonetheless, it has not been studied as extensively as in other arthropods groups (e.g., Arachnida).
