Abstract
► We model prey space-use around a common shelter. ► Predation risk and foraging competition set realized habitat quality and space-use. ► When competition is stronger than risk dilution prey spend time away from shelter. ► Prey reaction distance affects local population range in unexpected ways. ► Range, density, and quality respond to growing numbers differently in two landscapes.
