Shape of Evasive Prey Can Be an Important Cue That Triggers Learning in Avian Predators
Advertising escape ability could reduce predatory attacks. However, the effectiveness of certain phenotypic cues (e.g., color, shape, and size) in signaling evasiveness is still unknown. Understanding the role of such signals in driving predator learning is important to infer the evolutionary mechan...
