DOI: 10.1016/j.anbehav.2017.12.008
Abstract: Rapid human population growth and increasing habitat fragmentation lead to more frequent direct encounters between humans and animals. Consequently, numerous habitats will become less suitable for some species due to an increase in perceived risk… read more here.

DOI: 10.1016/j.trd.2020.102502
Abstract: Abstract Trains on railways collide with and kill wildlife, incurring economic costs for railway operators and impacting species of conservation concern. We proposed to address this problem with train-triggered warning signals, consisting of flashing lights… read more here.

Flight initiation distance, color and camouflage

DOI: 10.1093/cz/zoz005
Abstract: Abstract Camouflage is widespread throughout the animal kingdom allowing individuals to avoid detection and hence save time and energy rather than escape from an approaching predator. Thus, camouflage is likely to have co-evolved with antipredator… read more here.

DOI: 10.1093/ee/nvx039
Abstract: Abstract Predicting the emergence and arrival of insect pests is paramount for integrated pest management. To achieve this goal, it is important to understand how abiotic factors influence pest dispersal behavior. We investigated the effects… read more here.

Fearless distasteful butterflies and timid mimetic butterflies: comparison of flight initiation distances in Papilioninae

DOI: 10.1098/rsbl.2022.0145
Abstract: Prey are expected to flee from an approaching predator when the cost of remaining (i.e. being captured) exceeds the cost of fleeing. In species where individuals experience less predation pressure, delayed escape responses to predatory… read more here.

DOI: 10.1111/eth.12968
Abstract: Many animal populations are exposed to disturbance originating from human activities. In response to human disturbance, certain animals display a variety of potentially costly behavioural responses, such as increased antipredator behaviour or relocation to new… read more here.
