How a mega‐grazer copes with the dry season: food and nutrient intake rates by white rhinoceros in the wild (2006, background): “In contrast, Bison ( Bison bison ) maximized immediate rates of food intake rather than long-term energy gains (Bergman et al . 2001; Fortin, Fryxell & Pilote 2002 ).”
Digestively constrained predators evade the cost of interference competition (2004, background): “Although some recent studies showed maximization of short-term intake rate, explained by fitness-costs associated with foraging (Illius et al . 1999; Bergman et al . 2001; Fortin et al . 2002 ), maximization of long-term intake rate seems to be the general ‘rule’ (reviewed by Stephens & Krebs 1986;”
Foraging costs of vigilance in large mammalian herbivores (2004, methodology): “Foraging behavior and plant characteristics were recorded for free-ranging female bison in Prince Albert National Park (Saskatchewan) from 8 June-23 July 1998, as described in Fortin et al. (2002). Wolves inhabit the bison range, but bison-wolf interactions occurred infrequently (Fortin et al.”
Searching behavior and use of sampling information by free-ranging bison (Bos bison) (2003, methodology): “The observed food selection led to the maximization of a bison’s short-term rate of energy intake (Fortin et al. 2002).”
Digestive bottleneck affects foraging decisions in red knots Calidris canutus. I. Prey choice (2005, background): “117 Prey choice under a digestive constraint © 2004 British Ecological Society, Journal of Animal Ecology, 74, 105–119 herbivores (Fortin et al. 2002; Illius et al. 2002).”
MULTI-TASKING BY MAMMALIAN HERBIVORES: OVERLAPPING PROCESSES DURING FORAGING (2004, background): “…herbivores are now commonly evaluated by accounting for the overlap between chewing and searching (e.g., Gross et al. 1993b, Pastor et al. 1999, Fortin et al. 2002, Illius et al. 2002, Hobbs et al. 2003), the ecological implications of overlaps between foraging processes are still…”
Alternative prey can change model-mimic dynamics between parasitism and mutualism (2003, unknown): “Simple foraging models maximize the energy intake rate of a predator (e.g. Charnov 1976; Weissburg 1993; Fortin et al. 2002).”
Adaptive models for large herbivore movements in heterogeneous landscapes (2005, background): “The short-term rate of vegetation intake (I, g/min) can be controlled either by the rate of food handling in the mouth (cropping and chewing) or by the encounter rate with food items (Spalinger and Hobbs 1992; Farnsworth and Illius 1996; Fortin et al. 2002).”
The energy density of jellyfish: Estimates from bomb-calorimetry and proximate-composition (2007, background): “herbivores) often need to allocate more time to foraging (Fortin et al., 2002; Shrader et al., 2006).”
