Expanding this article

edit

I am considering adding several new sections to expand this article. These include:

  • A section on species-specific defence behaviours.
  • A section on the development of the predatory imminence theory.
  • A section on the different stages of threats and the behaviours that result.
  • A section on research into the function of brain structures in the varying stages of threat.

Well done on linking pages when discussing an uncommon term or a term that should be understood by the reader to grasp the concept of predatory imminence continuum. The length of the lead section is good and the material is presented in a neutral tone. You provided a very good list of trustworthy references and cited these references throughout your paragraph. This is just the beginning of the article, but it would be good to see a further breakdown of the spectrum and all the classified steps involved and some examples of species that have been observed to follow this spectrum in the paragraphs to follow. --SarMar (talk) 19:18, 23 October 2017 (UTC)Reply
