The researchers whose trusted networks rank it highest, strongest advocate first. Every researcher gets a different order.

Determining the fitness consequences of antipredation behavior (2005, background): “…(Burger and Gochfeld, 2001), web-building spiders Meteperia incrassata (Uetz et al., 2002), northern bobwhites Colinus virginianus (Williams et al., 2003), wood pigeons Columba palumbus (Kenward, 1978), redshanks (Cresswell, 1994b), and whitenosed coatis Nasua narica (Hass and Valenzuela, 2002).”
The cost of being alone: the fate of floaters in a population of cooperatively breeding pied babblers Turdoides bicolor (2008, background): “1999), increased predator detection (Hass and Valenzuela 2002), greater reproductive output (Mumme 1992, Boland et al.”
VARIATION IN THE DIET OF THE BROWN-NOSED COATI (NASUA NASUA) IN SOUTHEASTERN BRAZIL (2004, background): “They are frequent items in the diet of large felines (Gompper and Decker 1998; Hass and Valenzuela 2002), and variations in their densities have been attributed to the loss of predators from particular habitats (Terborgh 1992; but see Wright et al. 1994).”
Predator exposure improves anti‐predator responses in a threatened mammal (2018, background): “White- nosed coati (Nasua narica) also live in social groups and use vocalisations, social vigilance and keeping juveniles in the centre of the group to reduce predation rates (Hass & Valenzuela, 2002).”
