Reznick and Endler's study on guppies revealed that predation significantly influences the evolution of life history traits in these fish. They found that guppies living in high-predation environments tended to mature earlier, produce more offspring, and have shorter lifespans compared to those in low-predation settings. This demonstrated the adaptive responses of guppies to their predation pressures, emphasizing how ecological factors can drive evolutionary changes. Their research highlighted the importance of natural selection in shaping species' reproductive strategies.
