Abstract Hypothalamic VMHdm SF1 neurons are activated by predator cues and necessary sufficient for instinctive defensive responses. However, such data do not distinguish which features of a encounter encoded neural activity. To address this issue, we imaged at single-cell resolution in freely behaving mice exposed to natural varying contexts. Our results reveal that represent different behaviors, but rather encode identity multiple predator-evoked internal states, including threat-evoked...
