“…Several measures for evaluating human‐caused effects on wild populations have been used (Tarlow & Blumstein, ), but behavioural changes have been often considered the most sensitive measure of animal′s susceptibity to human effects. In general, human disturbance has been demonstrated to incur opportunity costs on animals mainly by causing increased vigilance, flight, avoidance of areas, changes in habitat use and reduced foraging activity (Filla et al., ; Jayakody, Sibbald, Gordon, & Lambin, ; Li, Zhou, Xu, Zhao, & Beauchamp, ; Lord, Waas, & Innes, ; Parsons et al., ; Richard & Côté, ; Tablado & Jenni, ), although the type and threshold of the behavioural responses vary in relation to human, environmental and species‐specific factors (Tablado & Jenni, ). According to previous research, these behavioural decisions made by animals responding to human presence and/or activities suggest that wildlife may perceive humans as a potential threat similar to predation risk (Beale & Monaghan, ; Frid & Dill, ; McLean, Smith, & Stewart, ; Walther, ).…”
