Identifying predators from saliva at kill sites with limited remains by Laurel E. Peelle, Aaron J. Wirsing, Kristine L. Pilgrim, Michael K. Schwartz

“…ABSTRACT Kill‐site investigations can yield valuable data about elusive predators and predator–prey interactions, provided the predator species can be definitively identified as the one responsible for the predation event. The traditional method of visually analyzing prey remains to identify predators is prone to observer bias and may be particularly challenging when few remains are present or in systems with congeneric predators. …”
