Natural selection may favour the evolution of foraging behaviours by predator that

#Section 4: Behavioural Ecology
  1. Less competitive ability of prey 

  2. Maximize the amount of energy gained per unit time spent foraging

  3. Those prey that is maximize their assimilation efficiency

  4. Require less time in searching
