- The study examines how predator hunting strategies (stalking by cougars and coursing by wolves) affect the movement behaviors of both predators and their ungulate prey in eastern Washington.
- Using hidden Markov models on data from over 400 GPS-collared animals, researchers found that while predators adjusted their movements based on prey type, ungulates reduced their movement in areas with large predators, regardless of the predator's strategy.
- The results indicate that predator and prey movements are influenced more by long-term patterns of risk and resource distribution than by specific hunting behaviors, highlighting the complexity of interactions in multi-predator, multi-prey systems.
