Moon phases influence the behavior of all living things, including humans. Lunar power is due to two primary forces: gravity and light changes.
Lions and other predators attack more during the week after a full moon. “The first hours of the night are darkest during the week following a full moon, and the lions are hungriest at that time because of the low predation success during full moon nights,” according to Noga Kronfeld-Schor, who led a study on moonlight’s affect on various species. The paper is published in the latest Proceedings of the Royal Society B.
