Brown Treesnake morphological and behavioral differences following ingestion of large meals, 2015 Data set resulting from monitoring the behavior of snakes (n = 62) that had been feed a standardized large meal with transmitter, proportional to their body mass, to make direct comparisons to a control group of snakes that had not been fed a meal (only the transmitter). Transmitters were equipped with a two-position switch that changes pulse rate when the body position of the animal changes more than 10 degrees from the switch's preset orientation. Changes in pulse rate serve as a proxy measurement for snake activity, under the logic that a relatively stationary/sedentary snake would cause the transmitter to tip less frequently that an actively moving/foraging snake would. The experiment took place in the U.S.... Categories: Data; Tags: Brown Treesnake, Detection Probability, Foraging, Guam, USGS Science Data Catalog (SDC), All tags... biota, Fewer tags
