By presenting an abundance of scientific evidence on olfaction and olfactory concealment theory throughout the text, "Predator-Prey Dynamics" reshapes the way that scientists view animal behavior. Olfaction is an effective method to locate prey because animals constantly release a stream of odorants, but this theory suggests that high wind speeds, updrafts, and turbulence (all predictable in time and space) can reduce the ability of olfactory predators to locate prey. Using published literature to test predictions, this book will help biologists and wildlife professionals to manage olfactory predators and their prey.
