Predation release of Texas horned lizards (Phrynosoma cornutum) living in small towns
Ecology and Evolution, Volume 11, Issue 10, Page 5355-5363, May 2021., 2021 Texas horned lizards living in small South Texas towns experience a predation release. This allows them to exist at much higher than normal densities than populations living in more natural environments. Abstract Texas horned lizards (Phrynosoma cornutum) have a number of ways to avoid predation, including camouflage, sharp cranial horns, flattening of
