dc.description.abstractThe level of risk an organism is willing to endure to get food should depend on the relative benefits and costs of foraging. We suspected that this would vary between gender, as well as size. We used a chemical stimulus to imitate a predation event and compared reactions to a control. The responses of O. rusticus to the alarm were found to be independent of gender, body size, and chelae size.en_US
