Predators are typically larger, faster, and more powerful than the animals they hunt. Yet in nature, most attacks fail. A new study published in the Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, by ...

Predator–prey interactions underpin the structure and function of freshwater and marine communities by regulating population sizes, driving species coexistence and shaping energy flows. Top-down ...

Eco-evolutionary dynamics describe the intertwined processes by which ecological interactions modulate evolutionary change and vice versa. These dynamics emerge when rapid shifts in species traits ...

Most predators are opportunistic hunters. If a species is open to eating multiple types of prey, it can improve its odds of finding food and surviving. However, some predators have taken a very ...
