Abstract: [cze] [eng]
Anti-predation behaviour is usually studied using dummies ? animal is confronted with a dummy of predator. These dummies are most often stuffed, however stuffed dummies of many species are not available. Dummies made of different (artificial) materials could replace them but their surface is featherless and so is changing general view and impression of dummies. Response of red-backed shrike (Lanius collurio) to European jay?s (Garrulus glandarius) dummy made of different materials has been tested.
Keywords: anti-predation behaviour; artificial dummies; European jay; mobbing; red-backed shrike
