Predator-mediated Foraging

Predator-Mediated Foraging is a theoretical framework in foraging ecology that explains how the risk of predation directly influences an organism's foraging behavior, habitat use, and resource acquisition strategies, distinguishing it from other foraging models by prioritizing predator avoidance as a primary selective pressure shaping foraging decisions.
