Relating Disparity in Competitive Foraging Behavior Between Two Populations of Fiddler Crabs to the Subcellular Partitioning of Metals

Behavioral changes in aquatic organisms such as reduced prey capture and decreased mobility have been linked to exposure to contaminants in the field. The purpose of this study was to compare competitive foraging and dominance behaviors of two populations of the fiddler crab, Uca pugnax, and to exam...
