Millions of army ants occasionally stream out of their nest in a coordinated hunting swarm, seeking prey to devour. How this extraordinary mass raiding behavior evolved has long been a mystery, until ...

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 ...

Northern Resident killer whales along the Pacific coast are suppressing their own calls and trailing Pacific white-sided ...

Dolphins' uncanny intelligence allows for some creative behavior when it comes to mating, gift-giving, and foraging. Now, researchers have a better idea of how they learn some of their food-finding ...

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 ...

Spotted hyenas adjust to a decreased presence of migratory prey in their territories induced by climate change. Researchers investigated the relationship between rainfall volume and migratory ...

Bees exhibit a complex interplay of sensory perception, learning and ecological interactions when seeking floral resources and effecting pollination. Individual foragers adjust their preferences for ...

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 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 ...
