Figure 1
Illustration of aggregations of the individual-level data (A). Colour indicates predator individuals (open/blue) and prey
individuals (filled/red). Individuals are assigned to a species (shape) and a size (size of shape). A gap between a predator's prey symbols
indicates separate feeding interactions. Overlapping symbols denote various levels of aggregations. In this illustration, predators are the
focal entity and prey are the non-focal entity. See Section
II.B
for details.
