Over their lifetime, individuals may use different behavioural strategies to maximize their fitness. Some behavioural traits may be consistent among individuals over time (i.e., 'personality' traits) resulting in an individual behavioural p...
Reproductive success of Bornean orangutan males: scattered in time but clustered in space [0.03%]
婆罗洲雄性红毛猩猩的繁殖成功：时间分散而空间集聚

Maria A van Noordwijk et al.
Abstract: The social and mating systems of orangutans, one of our closest relatives, remain poorly understood. Orangutans (Pongo spp.) are highly sexually dimorphic and females are philopatric and maintain individual, but...
The specificity of sperm-mediated paternal effects in threespine sticklebacks [0.03%]

Parental effects may help offspring respond to challenging environments, but whether parental exposure to different environmental challenges induces similar responses in offspring is largely unknown. We compared the offspring of threespine ...
Comprehension of own and other species' alarm calls in sooty mangabey vocal development [0.03%]

Abstract: Primates understand the meaning of their own and other species' alarm calls, but little is known about how they acquire such knowledge. Here, we combined direct behavioural observations with playback experiments...

The use of intentional language in biology is controversial. It has been commonly applied by researchers in behavioral ecology, who have not shied away from employing agential thinking or even anthropomorphisms, but has been rarer among res...
Common permutation methods in animal social network analysis do not control for non-independence [0.03%]
动物社交网络分析中的常见排列方法无法控制非独立性问题
Jordan D A Hart,Michael N Weiss,Lauren J N Brent et al.
Jordan D A Hart et al.
The non-independence of social network data is a cause for concern among behavioural ecologists conducting social network analysis. This has led to the adoption of several permutation-based methods for testing common hypotheses. One of the ...
Impact of predator model presentation paradigms on titi monkey alarm sequences [0.03%]
捕食者模型呈现范式对提提猴报警信号序列的影响

Mélissa Berthet et al.
Abstract: Predator presentation experiments are widely used to investigate animal alarm vocalizations. They usually involve presentations of predator models or playbacks of predator calls, but it remains unclear whether t...

Abstract: Studying the social behaviour of small or cryptic species often relies on constructing networks from sparse point-based observations of individuals (e.g. live trapping data). A common approach assumes that indiv...
From collocations to call-ocations: using linguistic methods to quantify animal call combinations [0.03%]
从词汇搭配到呼叫搭配：利用语言学方法量化动物叫声组合
Alexandra B Bosshard,Maël Leroux,Nicholas A Lester et al.
Alexandra B Bosshard et al.
Abstract: Emerging data in a range of non-human animal species have highlighted a latent ability to combine certain pre-existing calls together into larger structures. Currently, however, the quantification of context-spe...
