Functions of Snake Sloughs in Bird Nests Vary with Habitats: A Test of the Anti-Predation Hypothesis
SIMPLE SUMMARY: The anti-predatory effect of snake sloughs in bird nests may vary with different types of habitats. This study showed that snake sloughs in bird nests at one study site reduced the predation rate, whereas no such effect was observed at two study areas, suggesting that the anti-predat...
