Boldness and predator deterrence: a critique of Godin & Davis.

M Milinski1, P Boltshauser.   

Abstract

Godin & Davis (1995) claimed to have provided experimental evidence for a predator pursuit deterrence function of predator inspection in the guppy. We doubt that they have shown that inspection behaviour per se deters attack because their evidence is actually correlational and thus inherently ambiguous; furthermore we think their methods are flawed.
