Size-dependent predation by snakes: selective
... Most predation events consist of several phases (Endler, 1986), and successful evasion attempts may result from efficiency of the prey in any one or more of these stages (Vermeij, 1982). So, although body size can differentially affect lizard defense behavior, such variation may not be pertinent to ...
