Trophic cascades involving cougar, mule deer, and black oaks in Yosemite National Park (2008, background): “This shift in the use of space by the herbivore is typically considered a behavioral effect, since it is a non-lethal mechanism, and occurs when ungulates, under the risk of predation, alter their foraging patterns and movements in a ‘‘landscape of fear’’ (Lima, 1998; Laundré et al., 2001).”
What best explains vigilance in elk: characteristics of prey, predators, or the environment? (2008, background): “Herds with a high proportion of cows were more vigilant in the northern range, as has been shown for elk elsewhere in the Yellowstone ecosystem (Laundre et al. 2001; Childress and Lung 2003; Winnie and Creel 2007).”
What is the magnitude of the group-size effect on vigilance? (2008, background): “The lack of a relationship between vigilance and group size has also been noted frequently in mammals (e.g., Treves 2000; Laundré et al. 2001; Blumstein and Daniel 2002; Cameron and Du Toit 2005) indicating that avian and mammalian results are not qualitatively different and that the lack of a…”
MULTI-TASKING BY MAMMALIAN HERBIVORES: OVERLAPPING PROCESSES DURING FORAGING (2004, background): “The effect of foraging constraints has been (reviewed by Elgar 1989) and remains (e.g., Bøving and Post 1997, Laundré et al. 2001, Wolff and Van Horn 2003) largely overlooked in vigilance studies, and we suggest that these constraints might play a key role in controlling vigilance of herbivores in…”
The Importance of Wild-Animal Suffering (2015, background): “tor, the “landscape of fear” (Laundré et al. 2001) that predators create can be distressing.”
Trophic cascades in Yellowstone: The first 15 years after wolf reintroduction (2012, background): “…whereby elk in YNP, under the risk of predation by wolves, have altered their habitat use, movements, group sizes, vigilance, and other traits (Laundré et al., 2001; Childress and Lung, 2003; Wolff and Van Horn, 2003; Ripple and Beschta, 2004a; Creel et al., 2005; Hernández and Laundré, 2005;…”
Determining the fitness consequences of antipredation behavior (2005, background): “Other studies have examined how antipredation behavior is directly related to increasing survival of young (e.g., Laundré et al., 2001).”
