The Impact of Detoxification Costs and Predation Risk on Foraging: Implications for Mimicry Dynamics
Prey often evolve defences to deter predators, such as noxious chemicals including toxins. Toxic species often advertise their defence to potential predators by distinctive sensory signals. Predators learn to associate toxicity with the signals of these so-called aposematic prey, and may avoid them...
