Article: Predator satiation

The article on predator satiation does not have much written about the topic. As much as the article talks about predator satiation as a method of avoiding predation, it also discuses other methods equally as much. The article also states that there are many species that display this behaviour but only very briefly mentions two of them, when there could be multiple sections on the different species that use this method and specifically how they use it. Three out of five of the references for this article relate to one species in particular that uses predator satiation when the article only has one short paragraph that discusses this species and the rest of the article is focused on other things/species. The other two references seem like they are from one of a generic ecology article and an ecology textbook, respectively. The article does manage to keep a neutral tone and does not introduce biases surrounding the topic.

Rough Outline (Predator satiation):

- since most articles found seem to be about seed masting, I will add more information about seed masting in predator satiation

- the information already on the Predator satiation page said that fish also used this method to avoid predation, so I will look for articles supporting this to further expand on the process
