Abstract Temporal niche shifts can shape predator–prey interactions by enabling predator avoidance, enhancing feeding success, and reducing competition among predators. Using a community-based conservation approach, we investigated temporal partitioning of mammalian predators prey across 12 long-term camera trap surveys in the Pacific slope Talamanca Cordillera Costa Rica. overlap segregation were between predator–predator pairs using analysis, circular statistics, relative abundance after...
An increasing body of evidence indicates that moonlight influences the nocturnal activity patterns tropical mammals, both predators and prey. One explanation is brighter associated with increased risk predation (Predation Risk hypothesis), but it has also been proposed may be influenced by sensory ecology a species, species rely on visual detection food danger predicted to increase their during bright moonlight, while relying non-visual senses should decrease (Visual Acuity hypothesis). Lack...
