Abstract
Lay SummaryWhen offered a choice of experimental foods high in protein, lipid or carbohydrate, urban Australian white ibis showed a preference for high-carbohydrate foods. This is in contrast to the typical composition of their natural prey, which are low in carbohydrates and higher in protein and lipids. Furthermore, the proportion of macronutrients selected by ibis was affected by competition and previous rainfall, giving further insight into the complexities of a native species foraging in urban environments.Twitter: @SeanCoogs
