The optimal foraging theory posits that animals aim to maximize energy intake while minimizing predation and handling costs during foraging. Most observed animal behaviour supports this theory, but occasional deviations provide insights int...
Female social structure influences, and is influenced by, male introduction and integration success among captive rhesus macaques (Macaca mulatta) [0.03%]
雌性社会结构影响圈养恒河猴(Macaca mulatta)雄性的引入和整合,并被其反向影响

Animal social structure is influenced by multiple socioecological factors. Of these, the links between changes to group demography through the arrival of new individuals and residents' social structure remain unclear. Across seven groups of...
The role of personality traits in pair bond formation: pairing is influenced by the trait of exploration [0.03%]
性格特征在配偶关系形成中的作用:探索特性会影响配对行为

In species with long-term pair bonds, such as zebra finches, evaluating the quality of potential mates is critically important. Courtship is an opportunity to evaluate information from dynamic behavioural cues. Personality traits, as stable...
Incorporating genomic methods into contact networks to reveal new insights into animal behavior and infectious disease dynamics [0.03%]

Utilization of contact networks has provided opportunities for assessing the dynamic interplay between pathogen transmission and host behavior. Genomic techniques have, in their own right, provided new insight into complex questions in dise...
Exploring novelty: a component trait of behavioural syndromes in a colonial fish [0.03%]
探索新颖性:群居鱼类行为综合症的一个成分特征

Catarina I M Martins et al.
Individual differences in exploratory behaviour have been shown to be consistent across contexts and suggested to be part of behavioural syndromes in a diversity of species, including fish. Exploration has also been shown to be a key factor...

Metacognition, the monitoring of one's own mental states, is a fundamental aspect of human intellect. Despite tests in nonhuman animals suggestive of uncertainty monitoring, some authors interpret these results solely in terms of primitive ...
