The phenomenon in which a change of context after extinction can cause a robust return of conditioned responding. There are three models whereby renewal effect is observed. The most common model of observed renewal effect is the "ABA renewal". Conditioning is conducted in one context (context A) and extinction is then conducted in a second ...
The cave lynx or Mediterranean cave lynx (Lynx spelaeus or Lynx pardinus spelaeus) is an extinct felid species that lived during the Pleistocene. It is controversially discussed to be a subspecies of the modern Iberian lynx ( Lynx pardinus ) and to be a junior synonym of this species.
Auditory extinction appears to be a rather common phenomenon in the acute state of a vascular disease. [5] The acute state of the vascular disease usually leads to neglect, which then leads to the auditory extinction. The number of lesions causes an additive effect when occurring in combination with a recent damage. [18]
He described an effect in six predator–prey models where increasing the food available to the prey caused the predator's population to destabilize. A common example is that if the food supply of a prey such as a rabbit is overabundant, its population will grow unbounded and cause the predator population (such as a lynx) to grow unsustainably ...
Local extinction, also extirpation, is the termination of a species (or other taxon) in a chosen geographic area of study, though it still exists elsewhere. Local extinctions are contrasted with global extinctions. [1] [2] Local extinctions mark a change in the ecology of an area.
Further, the lynx was hunted as "vermin" under a law passed under Francisco Franco, from the 1950s to the late 1970s, when the hunting of lynx was prohibited. Secret hunting of lynxes still occurs today and is becoming a serious problem. [39] Illegal traps set for rabbits and foxes were the leading causes for lynx mortality in the 1990s. [40]
