Global Field Program (GFP) graduate Michael Haughwout '23 of Matawan, New Jersey, was published in Green Teacher magazine. "While studying Cheetah conservation practices in Namibia, I was able to ...
Animal survival depends on effective attack and defense strategies, yet how these behaviors arise remains unclear. Addressing this question, a recent study shows that predator and prey behaviors ...
A new study sheds light on how parasites, often overlooked, can dramatically affect the balance between predator and prey populations. Researchers developed a groundbreaking mathematical framework ...
More than 350,000 chemicals are used worldwide, and many find their way into the ocean through plastic pollution. As plastics ...
The hunt is on and a predator finally zeroes in on its prey. The animal consumes the nutritious meal and moves on to forage for its next target. But how much prey does a predator need to consume?
Ant‐eating spiders represent a fascinating model of trophic specialisation and adaptive evolution. These predators exhibit a narrow dietary spectrum (myrmecophagy), targeting specific ant taxa by ...
When asked for the best place on a body of water to be fishing or the best bait to be using, I reply with a question: What are the fish eating? A basic understanding of predator/prey relationships is ...
Researchers used computational simulations to demonstrate how simple sensing and movement rules—such as detection of distance and speed changes—constrain predator–prey interactions. In a simplified ...
