Brain, behavior, and physiological changes associated with predator stress–An animal model for trauma exposure in adult and neonatal rats

Brain, behavior, and physiological changes associated with predator stress–An animal model for trauma exposure in adult and neonatal rats

The use of predators and predator odor as stressors is an important and ecologically relevant model for studying the impact of behavioral responses to threat. Here we summarize neural substrates and behavioral changes in rats resulting from predator exposure. We briefly define the impact predator ex...
