Rapid morphological change of a top predator with the invasion of a novel prey.

Nature ecology & evolution - 1 Jan 2018

Cattau Christopher E, Fletcher Robert J, Kimball Rebecca T, Miller Christine W, Kitchens Wiley M

Abstract excerpt

Invasive exotic species are spreading rapidly throughout the planet. These species can have widespread impacts on biodiversity, yet the ability for native species, particularly long-lived vertebrates, to respond rapidly to invasions remains mostly unknown. Here we provide evidence of rapid morphological change in the endangered snail kite (Rostrhamus sociabilis) across its North American range with the invasion...
