Exploitation: Predation, Herbivory, Parasitism, and Disease

Chapter Objectives


Exploitation weaves populations into webs of relationships that defy easy generalization.

Predators, parasites, and pathogens influence the distribution, abundance, and structure of prey and host populations.

Predator-prey, host-parasite, and host-pathogen relationships are dynamic.

To persist in the face of exploitation, hosts and prey need refuges.
