The interface of ecological novelty and behavioral context in the formation of ecological traps

Lay SummaryNovel environments can trick animals into preferring the worst place to live. Artificial night lights simulate their primary navigational beacon (the moon) and when that light reflects off of asphalt it is polarized and makes roads appear as false ponds. Insects evolved to use moonlight to guide their flight, but it can also make false ponds more attractive as nesting sites.
