Assessment of a Social Media‐Based Method for Determining Raptor Diet

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, Volume 15, Issue 6, June 2025.
This study mined social media as a citizen science method to reduce the time burden and biases associated with recording accurate diet information for predators. In total, 1985 prey observations were recorded of two Australian coastal raptors and were used to produce diet profiles that were compared by region, social media platform, and against other ...
