AbstractSampling methods that are both scientifically rigorous and ethical are cornerstones of any experimental biological research. Since its introduction 30 years ago, the method of using plasticine prey to quantify predation pressure has become increasingly popular in biology. However, recent studies have questioned the accuracy of the method, suggesting that misinterpretation of predator bite marks and the artificiality of the models may bias the results.

Since its introduction 30 years ago, the method of using plasticine prey to quantify predation risk has become increasingly popular in the field of biology. However, recent studies have questioned the accuracy of the method, arguing that inaccuracy in inferring evidence of predator bite marks and the artificiality of models may bias the results.

AbstractPassive acoustic monitoring has become increasingly popular as a practical and cost-effective way of obtaining highly reliable acoustic data in ecological research projects. Increased ease of collecting these data means that, currently, the main bottleneck in ecoacoustic monitoring projects is often the time required for the manual analysis of passively collected recordings.
