Spatiotemporal predictions of the alternative prey hypothesis: Predator habitat use during decreasing prey abundance

Mitchell J. J. Brunet et al.

Summary: The alternative prey hypothesis suggests that predators will consume alternative prey when the abundance of their primary prey decreases. However, little is known about the behavioral mechanisms allowing predators to shift towards alternative prey. In this study, we evaluated the habitat selection and use by coyotes with respect to two prey species during a decline in their primary prey. We found that coyotes did not shift their habitat selection towards alternative prey, but instead took advantage of habitat overlap to facilitate prey-switching behavior.

Cats and dogs: A mesopredator navigating risk and reward provisioned by an apex predator

Mitchell J. Brunet et al.

Summary: Successfully perceiving risk and reward is crucial for animal fitness, and can be achieved through various perception tactics. Research indicates that mesopredators tend to use indirect perception to avoid apex predators rather than responding directly to the risk of encountering them.

Risky business: How an herbivore navigates spatiotemporal aspects of risk from competitors and predators

Katey S. Huggler et al.

Summary: Understanding the factors that influence animal behavior is crucial for ecology. In this study, researchers investigated how female mule deer's behavior shifted in response to spatial and temporal variation in risk from predators and competitors. Contrary to expectations, female deer exhibited selection for multiple risk factors, with risk exposure within their home ranges being the main factor modulating their response. The findings highlight the importance of considering the local environment when studying the effects of risk on animal behavior and the additional behavioral mechanisms used by large herbivores to mitigate predation and competition.

Resident and transient coyotes exhibit differential patterns of movement behavior across heterogeneous landscapes in the southeastern United States

Sarah C. Webster et al.

Summary: This study quantified the habitat use of resident and transient coyotes using first passage time (FPT) analysis. The results showed substantial differences in habitat use between residents and transients, which are influenced by territorial strategy.

Recursive use of home ranges and seasonal shifts in foraging behavior by a generalist carnivore

Jordan L. Youngmann et al.

Summary: The foraging behavior of coyotes is important for understanding their impacts on prey and other carnivores. Our study found that young white-tailed deer are more vulnerable to predation in forested areas where foraging coyotes select. Additionally, coyotes are able to obtain deer throughout the year, not just during fawning and fall hunting seasons.

Fine-scale movements and behaviors of coyotes (Canis latrans) during their reproductive period

Michael J. Chamberlain et al.

Summary: The study found significant differences between resident breeders and transient individuals in terms of space use, movements, and landcover characteristics. Resident coyotes tended to prefer areas with denser vegetation, while transients favored areas closer to roads and with lower canopy cover. Differences were also observed in behaviors during walking between the two groups.
