How predictability of feeding patches affects home range and foraging habitat selection in avian social scavengers? [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2013 Feeding stations are commonly used to sustain conservation programs of scavengers but their impact on behaviour is still debated. They increase the temporal and spatial predictability of food resources while scavengers have supposedly evolved to search ...
