Resumen
Tourists can have a strong impact on the behaviour of wild animals, modifying
foraging strategies, diet and habitat use, increasing stress, and altering communication
and escaping behaviour. Such behavioural changes have been documented for several
taxa, although less commonly studied in reptiles.
