A Sensory-Driven Trade-Off between Coordinated Motion in Social Prey and a Predator’s Visual Confusion
Fig 5
Time series of the kinetics underlying capture latency and accuracy.
Data show temporal trends in average prey speed (a), path tortuosity (b), and local spacing around the targets (c). Data are pooled across initial organizational conditions (group organization, ρ0) and exclude escape sequences (e.g., ve ≠ 10). Trend lines show the mean of each metric across replicates and their 95% confidence intervals. Vertical orange bands show the mean capture latency times for these conditions (mean ± 1 standard deviation, SD).
