Insects have evolved remarkably efficient strategies for navigation and foraging, employing a combination of innate behaviours and learned experiences to traverse complex environments. Their ...

Social wasps exhibit extraordinary foraging strategies that combine innate behavioural patterns with learned adaptations. Central to their success is the utilisation of olfactory cues, which not only ...

A new study used modern methods to reassess a foundational study in biology that explained how ecologically similar species of wood warblers coexist. The research team examined foraging behavior, ...

Like physical traits, behavioral traits have a heritable component, and personalities may resemble one parent’s more than the other. New research in mice finds that specific complex behaviors in these ...

Flexibility through foraging behavior breadth impacts their ability to adapt to human-modified environments Behavioral flexibility, as expressed through foraging behaviors, habitat use, and social ...

Genetics control behavioral sequences that are building blocks for complex behavior patterns. Mice scurry around while foraging for food, but genetics may be the unseen hand controlling these ...

Climate change is impacting the winter foraging behavior of wild snow monkeys in Japan, a new study revealed on Wednesday. The research involving the University of Tsukuba, and Shinshu University ...

A colony of ants have set up home in the International Space Station as part of an experiment to see how their behavior changes in an environment of low gravity (Getty) A colony of ants have set up ...

Only a very few animals use tools. Crows wield sticks to find food, chimps have fashioned primitive spears to hunt and dolphins in Australia have been spotted trapping fish in huge conch shells. Now, ...

Behavioral flexibility, as expressed through foraging behaviors, habitat use, and social behaviors, is thought to play an important role in a species’ ability to adapt to human-modified environments.
