“…The diel pattern in habitat selection we documented is thus largely consistent with vigilance behavior with respect to the spatio‐temporal variation in risk presented by hunters and one or more natural predators. There is some evidence of behavioral plasticity in ungulates facing predation (Chamaillé‐Jammes et al , Basille et al , Tambling et al ). As we did not investigate a contrasting situation without predation or hunting, it is not clear how flexible the habitat selection patterns are and whether the roe deer would adjust when experiencing a changed predation regime (as seen in e.g.…”

“…One strategy to reduce interference competition with a dominant predator, or reduce the risk of predation, is to partition activity into times of the day when predators are less active (Lima and Dill 1990, Kronfeld-Schor and Dayan 2003, Kohl et al 2018. Prey species in South Africa, for example, are more diurnal when co-existing with nocturnal top predators (lion Panthera leo and spotted hyaena Crocuta crocuta), compared to a neighbouring area without these predators (Tambling et al 2015). Such niche partitioning can be a mechanism that facilitates coexistence (Carothers and Jaksić 1984).…”

“…Accumulating evidence suggests that behavioral flexibility in activity patterns (i.e., temporal flexibility) in response to ambient temperatures is common in animals (Shkolnik 1971, Aublet et al 2009). Research indicates that animals may shift their activity patterns on the diel niche axis and may even invert them (night to day and vice versa) in response to ambient temperature (Whitford Boal and Giovanni (2007) Rat Rattus norvegicus N > D predation Fenn and Macdonald (1995) Rabbit Oryctolagus cuniculus N > D also diurnal under high predation Bakker et al (2005) Blind Rheingantz et al (2016) Kudu Tragelaphus strepsiceros N > D predation Tambling et al (2015) Warthog Phacochoerus africanus N > D predation Tambling et al (2015) Buffalo Syncerus caffer N > D predation Tambling et al (2015)…”
