Microhabitat conditions drive uncertainty of risk and shape neophobic responses in Trinidadian guppies, Poecilia reticulata

Author(s): Feyten LEA; Ramnarine IW; Brown GE;

In response to uncertain risks, prey may rely on neophobic phenotypes to reduce the costs associated with the lack of information regarding local conditions. Neophobia has been shown to be driven by information reliability, ambient risk and predator diversi ...

Assessing effects of predator density and diversity on neophobia in Trinidadian guppies

Author(s): Feyten LEA; Demers EEM; Ramnarine IW; Brown GE;

Neophobic predator avoidance, where prey actively avoid novel stimuli, is thought to allow prey to cope with the inability to predict predation risk (i.e. uncertainty) while reducing the costs associated with learning. Recent studies suggest that neophobia ...

Exploratory decisions of Trinidadian guppies when uncertain about predation risk

Author(s): Crane AL; Demers EE; Feyten LEA; Ramnarine IW; Brown GE;

Animals can reduce their uncertainty of predation risk by gathering new information via exploration behaviour. However, a decision to explore may also be costly due to increased predator exposure. Here, we found contextual effects of predation risk on the e ...

Exploring the threat-sensitive predator avoidance hypothesis on mate competition in two wild populations of Trinidadian guppies.

Author(s): Chuard PJC, Grant JWA, Ramnarine IW, Brown GE

The intensity of mate competition is often influenced by predation pressure. The threat-sensitive predator avoidance hypothesis predicts that prey should precisely adjust their fitness-related activities to the level of perceived acute predation risk and th ...
