The stress of being alone: removal from the colony, but not social subordination, increases fecal cortisol metabolite levels in eusocial naked mole-rats
In many social species, hierarchical status within the group is associated with differences in
basal adrenocortical activity. We examined this relationship in naked mole-rats …
