Research data supporting "Social information use about novel aposematic prey is not influenced by a predator’s previous experience with toxins"

This data is from the experiment investigating social avoidance learning in wild-caught great tits, conducted at Konnevesi Research Station in Central Finland during winter 2017. Sheet 1 (���main data���) contains data from the main avoidance learning experiment, including individual attributes (sex, age, weight etc.), experimental treatments and individuals��� foraging choices in the learning trials. Sheet 2 (���preference test���) contains data from the initial preference test of the symbols that were used in the experiment, and Sheet 3 (���visibility test���) data from the initial visibility test of the same symbols.

Research data supporting "Social learning within and across predator species reduces attacks on novel aposematic prey"

This data is from the experiment that investigated how wild-caught blue tits and great tits use conspecific and heterospecific information about unpalatable prey, published at the Journal of Animal Ecology (2020). The experiment was conducted at the Konnevesi Research Station from October to December 2017. Sheet 1 (“Main experiment”) contains data from the main avoidance learning experiment. Sheets 2 (“Symbol preference blue tits”) and 3 ("Symbol visibility blue tits") contain data of blue tits' symbol choices in initial preference and visibility tests.
