Animals can reduce their uncertainty of predation risk by gathering new information via exploration behaviour. However, a decision to explore may also be costly due to increased predator exposure. Here, we found contextual effects of predation risk o

Neophobia, the fear response of organisms towards novel cues, is a phenotypically plastic trait that manifests among prey that experience uncertain, often high levels of risk. Prey that find themselves in uncertain or highly variable risk environment

Prey are under immense pressure to make context-specific, behavioural decisions. Prey use public information to reduce the costs associated with making inappropriate decisions. Chemical cues are commonly used by aquatic vertebrates to assess local th

Neophobic predator avoidance allows prey to reduce the risk of predation but is costly in terms of reduced foraging or courtship opportunities if the novel cues do not represent an actual threat. Consequently, neophobic responses to novel cues should

Neophobic predator avoidance (NPA), the fear response exhibited by prey animals exposed to novel stimuli, is a plastic trait thought to be induced by exposure to elevated chronic risk of predation. Indeed, prey experiencing low levels of background r

Recent studies have established that variation in background level of risk has profound effects on antipredator phenotypes. Elevated levels of background risk not only change behaviour, but also physiology, morphology and cognitive function. A variet

Exposure to conditions of elevated predation risk, even for relatively short periods, has been shown to induce neophobic responses to novel predators. Such phenotypically plastic responses should allow prey to exhibit costly anti-predator behaviour t
