Data for: Multiple antipredator behaviors in red-tailed monkeys reveal spatially distinct landscapes of fear

Foraging opportunity and predation risk act as opposing influences on an animal’s habitat use. “Landscapes of fear” (LOF), whereby one predicts the spatial distribution of predators or perceived predator presence using prey responses, are an important tool for modeling this conflict. LOF models examining perceived predation risk are often generated using a single behavioral metric, even though individuals can respond to predation pressure with multiple potential behaviors. Here, we expanded traditional LOF approaches by measuring three antipredator behaviors in wild red-tailed monkeys (Cercopithecus ascanius): aggregation, alarm calling, and vigilance. We predicted that each behavior would reveal spatially explicit regions of high risk, as each behavior may attend to different aspects of perceived predation risk. The use of different behaviors may depend upon factors such as vegetation type, age/sex class of an individual, and which other antipredator behaviors are being exhibited by gr..., Behavioural observastions of individual red-tailed monkeys across vegetation types.,

觅食机会与捕食风险对动物的栖息地利用呈拮抗作用。“恐惧景观（Landscapes of fear, LOF）”是通过猎物的行为响应来预测捕食者的空间分布或感知到的捕食者存在情况的研究框架，是模拟该权衡冲突的重要工具。当前针对感知捕食风险的LOF模型，通常仅通过单一行为指标构建，尽管动物个体对捕食压力的响应可通过多种潜在行为实现。本研究通过记录野生红尾猴（Cercopithecus ascanius）的三种反捕食行为——集群行为、警报鸣叫与警戒行为，拓展了传统LOF研究范式。我们推测每种行为均可揭示空间上明确的高风险区域，因为不同行为对应感知捕食风险的不同维度。不同反捕食行为的选择可能受植被类型、个体年龄/性别类别，以及种群中其他个体所表现的反捕食行为等因素影响…… 不同植被类型下的野生红尾猴个体行为观测数据集。
