Large seabird colonies have a surrounding boundary known as Ashmole's halo, where food sources are depleted, forcing the ...

Fish species respond to temperature increases by going after more readily available prey. Models suggest this behavior could lead to more extinctions. Fish are changing how they search for and consume ...

Marine mammals have evolved extraordinary adaptations that enable prolonged breath-hold diving and efficient prey capture in varied oceanic realms. Physiological specialisations include enhanced ...

While foraging, animals including humans and monkeys are continuously making decisions about where to search for food and when to move among possible sources of sustenance. "Foraging behavior is ...

Foraging dynamics in pollinators encompass the strategies by which bees, butterflies and other flower-visiting insects locate, evaluate and exploit floral resources. Central place foraging theory ...

The first large-scale study of its kind has uncovered more than 4,000 years' worth of distinctive foraging behavior in a species once driven to the brink of extinction. The first large-scale study of ...

Spotted hyenas adjust to a decreased presence of migratory prey in their territories induced by climate change. This is the key result of a paper recently published in the scientific journal Ecosphere ...

Foraging : an overview / Ronald C. Ydenberg, Joel S. Brown and David W. Stephens -- Models of information use / David W. Stephens -- Neuroethology and foraging / David F. Sherry and John B. Mitchell - ...

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 ...

Fish are changing how they search for and consume prey in warmer waters, with models suggesting that extinctions will become more likely due to this behavior change, according to a new study published ...
