Ethology, EarlyView.One measure of antipredator behavioral boldness predicted turtle nest distance to the nearest human‐made structure. Turtles experienced two behavioral assays to quantify boldness (left panel). Turtles that displayed more bold behaviors during simulated predation nested closer to human‐made structures (top right) than their shyer counterparts (bottom ...

How wildlife respond to tropical cyclones: short‐term tactics and long‐term impacts
Biological Reviews, Volume 101, Issue 5, Page 2081-2102, October 2026.ABSTRACT From butterflies to lizards and from sharks to seabirds, wildlife exhibit tactics to survive the impacts of tropical cyclones, also known as hurricanes, cyclones, or typhoons depending on where they occur. Some species seek refuge during the storm by moving, some remain in place and ride it out, and others move longer distances, avoiding the ...
