We were interested in using molecular tools to illuminate the interactions between two predators and a common prey species, caribou, in Newfoundland. In recent years, the use of molecular methods in ecology has rapidly increased, but the application of molecular tools in the study of predation remains underutilized. Predation is a central process in many ecological communities, but the relationships between predator and prey populations are highly variable as a result of the inherent complexity of predator-prey systems.
