Eps 757: 8 Reasons Distribution Is A Waste Of Time

We found that dragonfly larvae conditioned to Chironomus larvae consumed the same amount of D. magna , but significantly less Chironomus larvae compared to dragonfly larvae conditioned to D. magna .
We show that dragonfly larvae fed by Chironomus larvae performed poorly and compensated by preferring D. magna when both prey types were available.
Parameters used in the models are caloric content, time to pursue and density of each prey type, and the speed of the predator.
