![]() ![]() Consequences of predation often ripple through the physiology and ecological interactions and are themselves modified by a change in the environmental conditions. A non-exhaustive list includes the evolution of crypsis and mimicry, aversion to cues of predator presence, greater cognitive perseverance of environmental signals related to predation, and, the emergence of motor adaptations in the predators. These consequences have led to a range of adaptations that ripple through multiple levels of biological organization. ![]() The individual consequences of the predator-prey interactions are often asymmetric in the sense that successful predation means terminal death for the prey and non-terminal nutrition for the predator. The 2020 Predator-Prey Interactions GRC aims to foster communication between these diverse approaches. ![]() It has been studied from a variety of perspectives and through multiple experimental techniques. Predation is a highly consequential biological interaction. ![]()
