Synchronized mating signals in a communication network: the challenge of avoiding predators while attracting mates by Legett, Henry D, Page, Rachel A, Bernal, Ximena E

“…Conspicuous mating signals attract mates but also expose signallers to predators and parasites. Signal evolution, therefore, is driven by conflicting selective…”

Danger comes from all fronts: predator-dependent escape tactics of túngara frogs by Bulbert, Matthew W, Page, Rachel A, Bernal, Ximena E

“…The escape response of an organism is generally its last line of defense against a predator. Because the effectiveness of an escape varies with the approach…”
