The context dependence of non-consumptive predator effects

Aaron J. Wirsing et al.

Summary: The study highlights the importance of non-consumptive predator effects on ecosystem structure and function, focusing on the plasticity of predator-induced prey anti-predator behaviors. It provides a framework for predicting the nature and strength of direct NCEs, emphasizing the need to better anticipate and account for NCE contingencies in research.

The role of browsers in maintaining the openness of savanna grazing lawns

Michael D. Voysey et al.

Summary: In savannas, heavy grazing by wildlife tends to result in lower woody cover, with browsing mesoherbivores and mixed feeders attracted to short-grass habitats and helping to maintain openness by suppressing seedling survival and woody plant growth.

Pumas' fear of humans precipitates changes in plant architecture

Veronica Yovovich et al.

Summary: Research on puma ecology shows that pumas tend to kill deer away from human development, leading to an increase in deer activity and foraging in areas near humans. This indirect impact on plant architecture increases food availability for deer, highlighting the cascading effects of human influence on trophic levels.

Spatial heterogeneity facilitates carnivore coexistence

Andrew B. Davies et al.

Summary: Contrary to previous studies suggesting strong spatial avoidance of lions by wild dogs, the primary lion-avoidance strategy of wild dogs was found to be selecting landscape features that aid in avoiding lion detection in this new study. This habitat selection by wild dogs was commonly used, especially in areas and during times of high lion-encounter risk, indicating a proactive response to lion risk. The findings suggest that spatial landscape heterogeneity could provide an alternative mechanism for carnivore coexistence, especially as shrinking carnivore ranges lead to increased contact between inferior competitors and dominant species.

Disturbance type and species life history predict mammal responses to humans

Justin P. Suraci et al.

Summary: A study on 24 mammal species in North America found that 33% of species showed reduced occurrence or activity in response to increasing human presence and footprint, while 58% of species were positively associated with increasing disturbance. The study also revealed that species traits such as size, diet, and reproductive rate were strong predictors of their responses to human footprint, with smaller, less carnivorous, and faster-reproducing species being favored. Differential responses to human presence and footprint highlight the importance of considering these two forms of human disturbance separately when estimating anthropogenic impacts on wildlife.

Invertebrate functional traits and terrestrial nutrient cycling: Insights from a global meta-analysis

Matthew A. McCary et al.

Summary: Functional traits are useful for characterizing variation in community and ecosystem dynamics. Advances in trait-based ecology focus mainly on plant traits, but animal traits also contribute significantly to community and ecosystem processes. Invertebrates play important roles in nutrient cycling, but the effects of their functional traits on terrestrial nutrient cycling are still not fully understood.

Animals connect plant species and resources in a meta-ecosystem

Jenny Mackay et al.

Summary: The movement of individuals and resources among habitat patches is a key process at the landscape scale. Herbivores transported significant amounts of nitrogen in serpentine grasslands via their feces, while carnivores’ scat was a high-quality but less predictable resource subsidy. Both types of consumers' feces contained viable seeds, but herbivores and carnivores transported non-overlapping subsets of plant species.

Living in the concrete jungle: carnivore spatial ecology in urban parks

Siria Gamez et al.

Summary: The study conducted camera surveys in city parks in Detroit from 2017 to 2020, collecting spatial occurrence data of the local carnivore community. It found that human activity did not significantly affect individual occupancy of urban carnivores, but co-occurrence between coyote and skunk increased with human activity, supporting the human shield hypothesis. This research demonstrates how urban carnivores can exploit spatial refugia and coexist with humans in the cityscape.

Functional traits driving species role in the structure of terrestrial vertebrate scavenger networks

Esther Sebastian-Gonzalez et al.

Summary: The study found that scavenger species with high olfactory acuity, social foragers, and obligate scavengers had the widest scavenging breadth. Social foragers also had a large paired nested degree in scavenger assemblages, likely due to being easier to detect by other species to signal carcass occurrence.

A methodological roadmap to quantify animal-vectored spatial ecosystem subsidies

Diego Ellis-Soto et al.

Summary: Meta-ecosystem theory studies how organisms and matter move across landscapes to connect different ecosystems, with recent research highlighting animals as important vectors of nutrient transport. Empirical tests of this theory are limited due to its abstract nature, and there is a need for better integration of tools to predict the roles and impacts of animals on diverse ecosystems. Integrating insights from movement, foraging, and ecosystem ecology can help enhance the quantification of animal-vectored nutrient flows and improve the predictive power of meta-ecosystem theory.

Reactive anti-predator behavioral strategy shaped by predator characteristics

Meredith S. Palmer et al.

Summary: The study found that large mammalian herbivores react differently to predators with different hunting styles and relative risk factors, adjusting their behavior choices and intensities accordingly. Each prey species directs longer vigilance periods towards predators with higher capture success and the decision to flee is driven by predator characteristics. Prey responses may reflect the perceived level of predation risk, with potential trade-offs to the use of reactive anti-predator behaviors.
