“…On the other hand, a fresh carcass, especially that of a predator, can also be scary in itself, as the animals approaching it may not be sure if the animal is dead or just sick, injured, or asleep, in which case it could turn on them. However, the scientific community has just started to uncover how animals respond to carnivore carcasses (e.g., Gonzálvez, Martínez‐Carrasco, & Moleón, 2021 ; Gonzálvez, Martínez‐Carrasco, Sánchez‐Zapata, et al, 2021 ), probably due in part to the difficulties in obtaining this type of carcass. In particular, the extent to which dead carnivores may frighten remains virtually unexplored to date.…”
