Abstract: Abstract Nest defense behavior helps ground‐nesting birds improve their breeding success. Among such behaviors, injury feigning behavior (IFB) is one of the better ways to attract predators and protect birds' nests. IFB is generally associated… read more here.

Abstract: Animals are thought to adjust the intensity of their parental defense to fitness benefits associated with their current reproduction. They should be more defensive when they breed early in the season, when they produce more… read more here.
