Query: Far-ranging generalist top predators enhance the stability of
  meta-foodwebs   Identifying stabilizing factors in foodwebs is a long standing challenge with
wide implications for community ecology and conservation. Here, we investigate
the stability of spatially resolved meta-foodwebs with far-ranging
super-predators for whom the whole meta-foodwebs appears to be a single
habitat. By using a combination of generalised modeling with a master stability
function approach, we are able to efficiently explore the asymptotic stability
of large classes of realistic many-patch meta-foodwebs. We show that
meta-foodwebs with far-ranging top predators are more stable than those with
localized top predators. Moreover, adding far-ranging generalist top predators
to a system can have a net stabilizing effect, despite increasing the food web
size. These results highlight the importance of top predator conservation.
