Almost all animals eat living things, so in a sense most are predators. We normally restrict the term, though, to cases in which the animal chases and kills its prey. Nevertheless, the models we will ...

Species interactions are widely assumed to be stronger at lower latitudes, but surprisingly few experimental studies test this hypothesis, and none ties these processes to observed patterns of species ...

In the largest predation event ever recorded, researchers observed capelin shoaling off the coast of Norway, where a swarm of cod overtook them, consuming over 10 million fish in a few hours. The team ...

We show that the price wars following two major entry episodes were predatory. Our proof is twofold: by direct comparison of price to marginal cost, and by construction of a lower bound to predicted ...

If there is one type of creature that competes with dragons for space in most geek imaginations, it’s the dinosaur. Leave it to Monte Cook Games, creators of Numenera and The Strange, to tap into this ...

Online communications are notoriously untrustworthy as strangers frequently misrepresent themselves in public chat interactions. Nearly everyone with an email account has received a plea from a ...

In a groundbreaking study, researchers from the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) and Norwegian scientists have documented what they believe to be the largest predation event ever recorded ...
