Foraging Theory and Nutritional Ecology: A Mini Review

Abstract

Faahan Simon*

Originally, two disciplines of study have created theory surrounding foraging and feeding that has influenced biology more broadly: optimal foraging theory and nutritional ecology. While these fields primarily developed concurrently, they are complementary, with each offering unique capabilities. We illustrate how nutritional geometry, a method developed in the study of insect nutrition, has offered a framework for merging fundamental components of optimal foraging theory into nutritional ecology. This synthesis provides a foundation for integrating with foraging and feeding the various parts of biology that are linked to nutrition and is currently influencing diverse sectors of the biological and biomedical sciences.
