Effects of Food Availability on Space and Refuge Use by a Neotropical Scatterhoarding Rodent

Emsens, Willem-Jan; Suselbeek, Lennart; Hirsch, Ben T.; Kays, Roland; Winkelhagen, Annemarie J. S.; Jansen, Patrick A. (2013)

Animals that rely on refuges for safety can theoretically increase their foraging area without simultaneously increasing predation risk and travel costs by using more refuges. The key prediction of this theory, a negative ...

Suselbeek, Lennart; Emsens, Willem-Jan; Hirsch, Ben T.; Kays, Roland; Rowcliffe, J. M.; Zamora-Gutierrez, Veronica; Jansen, Patrick A. (2014)
Prey refuges as predator hotspots: ocelot (<I>Leopardus pardalis</I>) attraction to agouti (<I>Dasyprocta punctata</I>) dens

Thieving rodents as substitute dispersers of megafaunal seeds

Jansen, Patrick A.; Hirsch, Ben T.; Emsens, Willem-Jan; Zamora-Gutierrez, Veronica; Wikelski, Martin; Kays, Roland W. (2012)

The Neotropics have many plant species that seem to be adapted for seed dispersal by megafauna that went extinct in the late Pleistocene. Given the crucial importance of seed dispersal for plant persistence, it remains a ...
