The Effects Of Predation Risk And Thermoregulation Cost On The Foraging Behavior Of The Eastern Grey Squirrel (Sciurus Carolinensis), Anne E. Collier

Senior Theses and Projects

In this study, the effects of predation risk and thermoregulation cost on the foraging behavior of the urban eastern gray squirrel (Sciurus carolinensis) were examined. There were two objectives. The first was to determine if either thermoregulation cost or predation risk had a more significant effect on foraging behavior. The second was to find out if foliar cover or distance to refuge was a more important cue of predation risk. To accomplish these goals, giving-up density and temperature data were collected at feeding trays both under the canopy and outside of the canopy at two deciduous trees and …
