Abstract: Using information from multiple predation cues may allow prey to accurately assess predation risk and correlate antipredator responses with the intensity of the threat. We assessed whether combined unimodal cues would enhance antipredator behaviour in… read more here.

Abstract: Simple Summary Interaction between natural and anthropogenic stressors, such as contaminants and predators, could jointly account for potential ecological risk to organisms. This study quantified the combined effect of copper and/or predation cues (non- consumptive… read more here.
