The editor’s selection is the article by Lennox et al.: “Predation analysis with digital tagging”
Within the early days of wildlife telemetry, utilizing VHF receivers and hand-held antennas, the lack of a tagged animal as a consequence of predation was extra of a nuisance than an attention-grabbing information level. Right this moment, digital tags and built-in sensors particularly calibrated for figuring out predation, in addition to particular analytical instruments are more and more growing telemetry into a superb method to higher perceive the the place, when, and the way of predation.
On this paper, Robert Lennox and co-authors synthesize the state-of-the-art in utilizing telemetry for detecting predation. Their assessment covers a broad spectrum of research settings in terrestrial and aquatic programs. It will likely be a priceless reference for future researchers of predator-prey interactions.
