• Escape behaviour of birds provides evidence of predation being involved in urbanization (2012, background): “…(Haskell et al. 2001; Sorace 2002), and urban densities of predators are higher than rural densities for corvids (Richner 1989; Jerzak 2001; Antonov &Atanasova 2003), cats, Felis catus (Lepczyk et al. 2003; Gaston et al. 2005; Sims et al. 2008) and generalist avian predators (Sorace & Gustin 2009).”
• Habitat urbanization and its effects on birds (2015, background): “Similarly to prey species, urbanization filters different predator species as well, favoring generalists over specialists (e.g. Jokimäki & Huhta 2000, Sorace & Gustin 2009) – hence the densities of these two predator groups are assumed to change differently along the urbaniza- Acta Zool.”
