Author response of: Disentangling different sources of variation in functional responses: between-individuals variability, measurements errors and inherent stochasticity of the prey-predator interaction process. Round#2

Key Points

• The aim is to clarify how different sources contribute to variability in functional responses during prey-predator interactions.
• Discussion of existing sources of variation: between-individuals variability, measurement errors, and inherent stochasticity.
• Analysis of how these sources affect functional responses and their interpretations.
• Highlights the need for careful analysis when examining functional responses.
• Emphasizes that individual variability and measurement errors can lead to misinterpretations in prey-predator studies.
