Variation in the temporal pattern of vulnerability can provide important insights into predator-prey relationships and the evolution of antipredator behavior. We illustrate these points with a system that has coyotes (Canis latrans) as a predator and two species of congeneric deer (Odocoileus...

Lam, Lawrence, McKinnon, Emily A., Ray, James D., Pearman, Myrna, Hvenegaard, Glen T., Mejeur, James, Moscar, Lauren, Pearson, Mackenzie, Applegate, Kelly, Mammenga, Paul, Tautin, John, Fraser, Kevin C.
For long-distance migratory songbirds, morphological traits such as longer wings and a smaller body size are predicted to increase migration efficiency. Due to previous limitations in our ability to track the long-distance journeys of small-bodied birds, the relationship between morphology and...
