I'm not sure if many of you are familiar with the above term, but it applies to biodiversity, more specifically means that animals are capable of predicting the quality of a patch they occupy in terms of food resources. What happens is, species of animals occupying a certain area distribute themselves between the several patches. I really wanted to mention this to show that clearly animals are "sensible" and I find it quite amazing how ideal they are in predicting the patch quality!

("ideal" means that the animals are ideal in assessing the patch quality and "free" means that they are capable of moving from one patch to another)
