- Predation in bird populations (2011, background): “If predators are at low density and suitable habitat abundant then prey species can play a successful game of hide-and-seek with predators (Wirsing et al. 2010).”
- The ecological importance of intact top-predator populations: a synthesis of 15 years of research in a seagrass ecosystem (2012, background): “By investigating changes in how a variety of potential tiger shark prey species modify their use of the different portions (microhabitats) of shallow banks as shark abundance varies, we have begun to unravel the particular factors that influence the nature of predator risk effects (e.g. Heithaus et ”
- Behavioural drivers of the ecological roles and importance of marine mammals (2015, background): “For example, prey escape tactics, physical features of habitat (e.g. depth, visibility) and predator hunting mode can singly, or through all possible interactions, affect the nature and magnitude of ‘risk effects’ (Heithaus et al. 2009, Wirsing et al. 2010).”
- Large carnivore impacts are context-dependent (2017, background): “Predation risk is not homogenous across landscapes or species; habitat features can interact with escape tactics to shape interspecific interactions (Wirsing et al. 2010).”
- A comparison of shark and wolf research reveals similar behavioral responses by prey (2011, background): “Behavioral responses to predators are also contingent on prey escape mode in both marine and terrestrial ecosystems (Wirsing et al. 2010).”
