Moving to the ideal free home

Article Abstract:

The adaptive behavior of Pike which move between two basins of a British lake to maximize their evolutionary fitness suggests that habitat selection is more significant in population dynamics. Pike in Lake Windermere provide compelling evidence that the ideal free distribution occurs at much larger scales where populations are regulated and dispersal between basins equalizes fitness and homogenizes population growth.
