Predation – species interaction where one party benefits (predator) and one is hurt (prey)
- behaviorally: diet choice, patch use
- community level: How does predation contribute to species diversity ?
- population impacts: how predators control and/or regulate prey numbers (or vice versa)
Lethal approach – predators kill their preyFear approach – predators scare their prey

type II - satiation
# preyconsumed
density of prey (N)
Predators have two responses to their prey:
(1) Numerical response - predators with prey
(2) Functional response – predator consumption changes with prey density
type III

Predator-prey models
1 N = r(K-N) - (N)P N t K
1 P = (N)N - dP t
= conversion of consumed prey into new predators
d = predator death rate
(N) = predator functional response

How do you stabilize unstable predator-prey interactions?(Huffaker’s 1958 experiments)
prey predator
Simple environments lead to simpleoutcomes -- EXTINCTION

So, create complex environments including barriers to predator dispersal and cycles emerge – illustrates the importance of REFUGES

Summary:
(1) Predator-prey interactions contain inherent time lags that result in population cycles
(2) These cycles can be stable, unstable, or neutrally stable
(3) Relatively efficient predators lead to unstable cycles and extinction
(4) Complex environments and refuges can stabilize predator-prey interactions
(5) Enriching the prey population is not a viable strategy, rather it destabilizes interactions and leads to population extinction

Comparison of the lethal and fear approaches
Lethal
- predators kill their prey
- Population density driven systems
- Brownian motion behavior of pred/prey
Fear
- predators scare their prey
- Fear driven systems: fierce predators and fearful prey
- Sophisticated game of stealth and fear

Incorporating the Ecology of Fear (Brown et al. 1999)
Prey are apprehensive – i.e., they engage in vigilance behavior
MFear (i.e., predation risk) = ---------------- (prey have perfect info)

Fear: - w/likelihood of encountering a predator, M- w/predator’s lethality, 1/k

Tradeoff:
Too much vigilance miss out on valuable feeding opportunities
Too little vigilance likely killed by a predator
Shift the hump in the prey’s isocline.
Still safety in #s, butreduced vigilance @ high N reduces its effectiveness
Bend down the predator’sisocline.
Predator’s have reduced efficiency because more predators results in greater vigilance in the prey making them harder to catch
Interference or Behavioral Resource Depression
![Page 32: Am. beech Sugar maple Axis Sun to shade Tradeoff Allocation of Energy: vertical or horizontal Prey size/speed In capture techniques mass vs speed Micro-habitats.](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022081520/56649cd65503460f9499cf07/html5/thumbnails/32.jpg)
Implications:
(1) Greater stability in predator-prey interactions – no Catch-22, and reduce the Paradox of Enrichment
(2) Territoriality in fierce predators may function to protect the catchability of the prey – avoid the “wayward” Mnt. Lion stumbling into your territory
(3) Behavior (e.g., vigilance) is a leading indicator of ecological change

Three kinds of evidence:
- The changes are much faster than could occur from elk mortality
- Reduced herbivory is restricted to risky habitats
- Elk have exhibited behavioral changes consistent with an Ecology of Fear Hypothesis:
(1) favor areas with good visibility & escape structures (scat)(2) increased vigilance and less feeding
These changes have left physiological evidence

Broad Conclusions:
Predators have at least two general effects on prey: lethal and non-lethal
Predators kill prey and are also involved in a sophisticated game of stealth and fear
Incorporating behavior (Fear) has important consequences for pred-prey interactions ….”Ignore Behavior at your peril”
