Social predators benefit from cooperation in the form of increased hunting success, but may be at higher risk of disease infection due to living in groups. Here, we use mathematical modeling to investigate the impact of disease transmission on the population dynamics benefits provided by group hunting.

Intraguild predation reduces redundancy of predator species in multiple predator assemblage
Journal of Animal Ecology, 2006Summary Interference between predator species frequently decreases predation rates, lowering the risk of predation for shared prey. However, such interference can also occur between conspecific predators. Therefore, to understand the importance of predator biodiversity and the degree that predator species can be considered functionally interchangeable,

Key Concepts CONCEPT 12.1 Most carnivores have broad diets, whereas a majority of herbivores have relatively narrow diets. CONCEPT 12.2 Predation results in a wide range of capture and avoidance mechanisms.

Predator-prey relationships: egg-eating predators
Mathematical Biosciences, 1983Im Anschluß an frühere Untersuchungen verschiedener Autoren wird ein Modell für ein Räuber-Beute-System entwickelt, in dem die Räuber die Eier (oder Jungen) der Beutepopulation fressen. Dabei wird die Beutepopulation als altersstrukturiert und zeitabängig mit alters- und zeitabhängiger Form der Fruchtbarkeitsrate vorausgesetzt, während die ...

Predator: non-predator ratios in beetle assemblages
Oecologia, 1992In common with samples from less taxonomically constrained studies, significant correlations exist between the numbers of predatory and non-predatory species in assemblages of terrestrial beetles. Under logarithmic transformation the relationship can be described reasonably well by a straight line.

The first task faced by the writer of any book is the setting of limits around the material to be covered. This is primarily an exercise in definition and, as with any such exercise, is an invitation to dispute. Nearly every textbook dealing with ecology offers a unique definition of predation.

Predation and Predator Management *
2019Predation has shaped many facets of the ecology of plovers, including their life history traits, behaviors, and demography. Moreover, conservation often emphasizes managing predators to increase population size. I reviewed literature addressing impacts of predation on survivorship and reproductive success of plovers, as well as four management ...

Abstract Chapter 18 introduces predation theory, the most recent among realist expositions on the causes of war. This theory puts forward an explanation for war that focuses on the dynamics of relative capability between and among the great powers.
