Blood Cues Induce Antipredator Behavior in Nile Tilapia Conspecifics
(2013-01-18)
In this study, we show that the fish Nile tilapia displays an antipredator response to chemical cues present in the blood of conspecifics. This is the first report of alarm response induced by blood-borne chemical cues in ...
Behavioural defences of anurans: an overview
(Taylor & Francis Ltd, 2011-01-01)
Among vertebrates, defensive behaviours have been reviewed for fishes, salamanders, reptiles, birds, and mammals, but not yet for anuran amphibians. Although several defensive strategies have been reported for anurans, ...

The defensive behavioral patterns of captive white-lipped and collared peccary (Mammalia, Tayassuidae): an approach for conservation of the species
(Springer, 2017-06-01)
Defensive behavioral patterns in response to human-induced rapid environmental change can affect animals' fitness and may play a role in species conservation status. To test this hypothesis, we compared the risk assessment ...
An Inescapable Cat Odor Exposure Protocol for Studying Innate and Contextual Threat Conditioning in Rats
(2021)
Animals respond to threatening situations by exhibiting a number of defensive behaviors, including avoidance, freezing, and risk assessment. An animal model with an ethological approach offers a deeper insight into the ...
Multiple stable states in a model based on predator-induced defenses
(Elsevier B.V., 2017)
© 2017 Elsevier B.V. A large variety of antipredator defenses are exhibited by plants, animals and microbes in nature. A deep understanding of the dynamic consequences of prey responses to predation risk is essential for ...
Evidence of maternal provisioning of alkaloid-based chemical defenses in the strawberry poison frog Oophaga pumilio
(2014)
Many organisms use chemical defenses to reduce predation risk. Aposematic dendrobatid frogs sequester alkaloid-based chemical defenses from a diet of arthropods, but research on these defenses has been limited to adults. ...
