Nursery Areas as Essential Shark Habitats: A Theoretical Perspective (2007, background): “However, few predators near the top of food webs consume one type of prey, and when predators consume a diverse array of prey (as most juvenile sharks do), theoretical models predict that they will distribute themselves across habitats relative to the overall energy intake available in each habitat ”
The ecological importance of intact top-predator populations: a synthesis of 15 years of research in a seagrass ecosystem (2012, background): “…the proportion of foragers in a habitat divided by the portion of food resources in a habitat) should increase in safer habitats and decrease in dangerous habitats as the overall risk of predation increases (e.g. Abrahams and Dill 1989, Hugie and Dill 1994, Heithaus 2001c, Křivan et al. 2008).”
Living on the edge: dugongs prefer to forage in microhabitats that allow escape from rather than avoidance of predators (2007, methodology): “When foraging over shallow seagrass meadows, tiger sharks show a consistent preference for edge microhabitats , putatively in an attempt to match the combined distribution of several of their major prey species (Heithaus 2001a; Heithaus et al. 2006).”
FOOD AVAILABILITY AND TIGER SHARK PREDATION RISK INFLUENCE BOTTLENOSE DOLPHIN HABITAT USE (2002, methodology): “…were defined based on both changes in water temperature and in the abundance of many species that, along with dolphins, are prey of tiger sharks; these include dugongs (Dugung dugon), turtles (Caretta caretta and Chelonia mydas), and sea snakes (primarily Hydrophis elegans) (Heithaus 2001c).”
Spatial responses to predators vary with prey escape mode (2010, background): “…2007), an inverse spatial relationship between prey food availability and post-encounter risk leads predators to consistently select for areas where food for their prey is plentiful (Hugie & Dill 1994), and/or alternative prey are available (i.e. the predator is a generalist; Heithaus 2001).”
Does tiger shark predation risk influence foraging habitat use by bottlenose dolphins at multiple spatial scales (2006, background): “E; Heithaus 2001d).”
