This repository includes the data (data-rare-type3-responses.csv) to "Empirical evidence of type III functional responses and why it remains rare" by Kalinkat, Rall, Uiterwaal, and Uszko (under review). The data comprises a literature review on type III functional responses between 2002 and 2022 with 12 variables and 107 observations. Please read the accompanying document (data-methods-rare-type3-responses.pdf) for the methods and a description of the variables.
