Beyond the encounter: Predicting multi‐predator risk to elk (Cervus canadensis) in summer using predator scats

Abstract There is growing evidence that prey perceive the risk of predation and alter their behavior in response, resulting in changes in spatial distribution and potential fitness consequences. Previous approaches to mapping predation risk across a landscape quantify predator space use to estimate...
