Ironically, river boards' success in buying out estuarial netsmen has adversely affected predator control.

At first the program focused on rodent management and predator control activities.

It became nearly extinct in the 1930s as a result of predator control programs, but was successfully reintroduced later (citation needed).

He was known for his fight for pest and predator control.

Intensive methods include predator control for cats, ferrets, stoats and weasels.

If people are frightening a top predator to such an extent that it’s eating less of its cache, she says, that’s clearly going to affect the predator population.

This will cause the predator population to dip, decreasing the predation pressure on the prey population.

Suggested conservation work for the future includes habitat restoration and predator population control.

Studies show furthermore that direct effects on the predator population, through harvesting of the prey, are not necessary to observe the paradox.

Thus, reduction in the abundance of top predators may cause the medium-sized predator population to increase, therefore having a negative effect on the underlying prey community.

When chickadees spot predators, they sound the alarm for any animal in earshot.

Experts in 102 countries have written to him to say plans to encrypt messages will make it impossible to spot predators.

This provides a horse with the best chance to spot predators.

Vigilant individuals often have prime escape opportunities as the first to spot predators.

The dragons, which grow to a length of about 10ft and weigh about 130lb (60kg) are vicious predators that prey on animals as large as deer.

They are vicious predators who live in large collectives.

They are, however, undeserving of their reputation for being overly vicious predators.

This voracious predator hunts a wide variety of prey, including other insects, tadpoles, and small fish.

As a voracious predator, it was identified as a biocontrol agent for aphids and scale insects.

A voracious predator, this beetle hunts a wide variety of prey including small fish.

As none of these species has evolved alongside swift and voracious predators such as crabs and bony fish, they have few defences against them.

Second, early cephalopods reigned in the sea, most likely as voracious predators.

By inflating, the shark may be able to wedge itself inside crevices, make itself harder to swallow, or simply intimidate a would-be predator.

Would-be predators may have recoiled before our stench, he suggested.

This causes the road to roll up, a tunnel to turn inside-out, and a bridge to be destroyed as he puts his would-be predator far behind.

Traditionally, biologists have seen the stripes of bees, wasps and hornets as a warning to would-be predators that they sting.

Others cling on to would-be predators.
