Oftentimes, eating is a brutal affair, in which whole individuals are consumed. Predation is messy, and not just because of the dripping hemolymph. Predation is a theoretical jumble, as this broad concept is prominent in many subfields, such as population regulation, niche dynamics, neurobiology, phylogenetic reconstruction, behavioral mechanisms, co-evolutionary processes. In an introductory biology textbook, predation could reasonably be featured in a majority of the chapters. Organized thought about the broad topic of predation is a challenge. This messy matter has been synthesized by Carlo Polidori, with contributions emphasizing the evolutionary history of predation. He…
