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 ...

Research from Adelaide University and the South Australian Research and Development Institute (SARDI) has shown for the first time that Australian sea lion pups can learn foraging behavior from their ...

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

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, ...

Ant foraging behaviour is a paradigmatic example of sophisticated social coordination in the animal kingdom. Central to their success is the use of chemical signals, particularly trail pheromones, ...

Breakthroughs, discoveries, and DIY tips sent six days a week. Terms of Service and Privacy Policy. Spatial learning is an important and complex skill in the animal ...

A new study of New Zealand blue whales' vocalizations indicates the whales are present year-round in the South Taranaki Bight and their behavior is influenced by environmental conditions in the region ...

(CN) — As climate change continues to melt Arctic sea ice, a new study on Wednesday suggests increasing ship traffic and seismic airgun blasts negatively impact the region’s narwhals. In the study ...

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 ...

Killer whales foraging in deep submarine canyons off the coast of California represent a distinct subpopulation that uses specialized hunting techniques to catch marine mammals, researchers report.
