Costs and benefits of within-group spatial position: a feeding competition model
BT Hirsch - The Quarterly review of biology, 2007 - journals.uchicago.edu
An animal's within-group spatial position has several important fitness consequences. Risk
of predation, time spent engaging in antipredatory behavior, and feeding competition can all …

Early Pleistocene faunivorous hominins were not kleptoparasitic, and this impacted the evolution of human anatomy and socio-ecology
Humans are unique in their diet, physiology and socio-reproductive behavior compared to
other primates. They are also unique in the ubiquitous adaptation to all biomes and habitats …

Facultative response to a kleptoparasite by the cooperatively breeding pied babbler
In many cases of interspecific kleptoparasitism, hosts develop defensive behaviors to
minimize the impact of kleptoparasites. Because vigilance and defensive behaviors are …

Dominance, pair bonds and boldness determine social-foraging tactics in rooks, Corvus frugilegus
Socially foraging animals can search for resources themselves (produce) or exploit the
discoveries made by others (scrounge). The extensive literature on producer–scrounger …

How wild bearded capuchin monkeys select stones and nuts to minimize the number of strikes per nut cracked
Wild bearded capuchin monkeys, Cebus libidinosus, use stone tools to crack palm nuts to
obtain the kernel. In five experiments, we gave 10 monkeys from one wild group of bearded …

Think fast!: vervet monkeys assess the risk of being displaced by a dominant competitor when making foraging decisions
Foraging animals need to quickly assess the costs and benefits of different foraging
decisions, including resource quantity, quality, preference, ease of access, dispersion …
