Body posture, gaze, and predator detection: how stalking behaviour may influence colour vision evolution

2023-05-30

Abstract excerpt

The success of a predatory attack is related to how much a predator manages to approach a prey without being detected. Some carnivore mammals use environmental objects as visual obstacles during stalking behaviour, allowing them to get closer to their prey while only showing parts of their coat or faces during movement or visual monitoring. Here, we investigate the influence of carnivores’ body postures and gaze o...
