(Experimental Design) You are a research biologist for the Georgia Department of Natural Resources (GA-DNR). You have discovered that the highly piscivorous (i.e., fish-eating) flathead catfish (Pylodictis olivaris) was illegally introduced in the Satilla River (in Southeast Georgia). Shortly after the introduction, GA-DNR biologists observed a substantial decline in the abundance of the native redbreast sunfish population. You are concerned that the native redbreast sunfish may be naive to this exotic predator and, as a result, not possess the necessary...
