  9. 💁🏻‍♀️ TIL: 🐋💥 Researchers in the Gulf of #California filmed orcas ramming dead #sunfish so hard the carcasses exploded.

    The high impact strategy breaks #food into smaller pieces for juveniles and may also serve as #play. The sunfish’s rudder like tail seems to make a convenient handle for the #orcas to hold while striking.

  19. Bird song has been central to the nature-versus-nurture debate. In my latest piece, I argue that new ideas from developmental science, combined with classic studies on the social shaping of song, point toward a way beyond the innate-versus-learned dichotomy. #birds #ethology #animal #genetics #biology #ornithology

  23. Since it remains unclear whether my current #PostDoc contract will be prolonged in January, I am starting to look for a new #AcademicJob!

    My expertise are #ecology, #ethology, #AnimalBehavior, with a focus on #olfaction in #mammals.
    I had a stint in #NeuroEthology, but that wasn't quite my cup of tea, and I am currently working in #AnimalWelfare for husbandry animals (think cows, pigs etc).
    I have done field work (wild rodents), lab work (very controlled behavioral assays), and pure data analysis.
    I do everything in #rstats, so my standard analysis tools are GLM/GLMM, but I'm currently learning how to properly use Generalized Additive Models, as they seem like the natural next step.
    I've also dabbled in #python in order to work with #DeepLabCut and #moseq, so the last few years I spent mostly with #ComputerVision, #DeepLearning, and extracting data from videos.
    As that requires heavy GPU calculations, I've done most on my work on institutional and/or national #HPC, and then crunched the masses of resulting data in #rstats

    I'm looking for a job in the #EU, preferably anywhere north of Germany, but let's be honest, I'll go wherever there is a job.

  25. Behavioral ecology is the study of the evolutionary basis for animal behavior due to ecological pressures. It examines how behavior evolves, functions, and adapts in response to an organism's environment.

  31. _Ethical responsibility_ 🧶

    Incest is settled by a perverse disconnect between words and deeds.
    According to Cécile Cée, ‘the situation does not depend on what the victim has to say about it, but on what society should say about it’ (p. 181). The act of naming is not:
    * the result of interpersonal negotiation (to what extent may I call incest what the victim does not designate as such?),
    * but rather a collective statement (‘It is up to society, to third parties, to you, to enunciate,’ p. 182), which alone can ‘put the world back the right way up’ (p. 227),
    * then we move away from individual conscience and into the realm of social and political ethical responsibility.

  39. 🐋🪞 In a new study, two #beluga #whales at a #NewYork #aquarium showed possible self-recognition in a mirror – one even pressing a mark behind her ear against the reflective surface.

    The results place belugas alongside #chimpanzees, #dolphins, #elephants, and maybe #magpies on a short list of species that pass. But scientists disagree on what the test actually proves, and the debate itself raises deeper questions about animal #consciousness.

  41. 🦧 New study on #bonobo #SocialBehavior: Arias-Vélez et al. show that #bonobos actively intervene in #SocialInteractions to enforce group norms and reduce conflict. Rather than reacting only to direct threats, bystanders often stepped in during socially disruptive situations, suggesting a form of third-party social regulation resembling proto-norm enforcement.

    Chemical evidence of shared traits includes:
    ◦ Crayfish: Display clinical anxiety and elevated serotonin when subjected to shocks.
    ◦ Honeybees: Become pessimistic after simulated attacks.
    ◦ Tiny Worms: Use oxytocin-like chemicals to seek mates despite having only 302 nerve cells.
    ◦ Dogs: Can suffer from obsessive-compulsive disorder.

    By recognizing these shared emotions, we take a giant stride toward understanding the living web we inhabit. So, let's dive into the animal mind and see the world through a completely new light.

    The Paradigm Shift: From "It" to "Who"

    • Science is moving away from viewing animals as biological "its"—mechanical beings driven solely by instinct—to recognizing them as conscious "whos".

    This isn’t just sentiment—it’s biological truth. Modern neurology reveals that we inherited our nervous systems from the same evolutionary tree as the creatures around us. From crayfish experiencing clinical anxiety to elephants making strategic alliances, we are finding that the biological trails of human emotion are built upon ancient trails shared by all living things.
