3. Nave blue jays will try to eat any number of things; however, once they have a bad experience with a particular prey item, they are less likely to attempt to eat it again. In a famous experiment, Lincoln Brower fed monarch butterflies to blue jays. Monarchs are distasteful and poisonous. You decide to perform a similar experiment. You offer one group of jays experience with a butterfly: they all eat the butterfly and subsequently vomit (the "barfers"). The second group of jays is nave and has only eaten bird food. You then test each group with a monarch.

EAT REJECT

# of barfers 4 7

# of nave birds 10 0
