Adjusting risk-taking to the annual cycle of long-distance migratory birds

Abstract Life-history theory predicts that current behaviour affects future reproduction, implying that animals should optimise their escape strategies to reflect fitness costs and benefits of premature escape. Both costs and benefits of escape may change temporally with important consequences for t...
