After many talks at #Behaviour2019 on animal exploration and problem solving, the only amusing thing on this train ride with a migraine is observing humans contend with a novel handle and lock task on the restroom doors. Much individual variation in latency.
Bears at a kiddie pool? Raccoons by your window? Organisms are clearly adapting to urban environments and Mark McDonnell makes a strong call for moving the field of #UrbanEcology forward by quantifying urban-rural gradient

Stop by to check out this cool work at P240 by @brian_leavell integrating eavesdropping frog-biting midges and male-male competition to understand direct & indirect effects of multiple receivers on frog calling behavior
@AnimBehSociety #Behaviour2019
Early-life stress affects social phenotypes - What a fun and insightful talk by @NeeltjeBoogert!
Lots of interesting results, a highlight for me: Stressed chicks don’t copy their parent’s behavior (foraging & singing) #Behaviour2019 @AnimBehSociety
How wonderful to hear @NeeltjeBoogert starting her plenary openly addressing mental health in #Academia! @AnimBehSociety #Behaviour2019
@olimendonca presenting her poster at #Behaviour2019. A lot of interest on her work on palm predation by black capuchin monkeys. #brazilscience #primatology #cienciabrasileira #cienciausp #womeninscience #WomeninSTEMM
Female frogs in a social environment w/aggressive calls just want to escape! Gerlinde Höbel shows how female green treefrogs are less like to approach mating calls when hearing aggressive calls and just go comb a wall 🐸 #Behaviour2019 @AnimBehSociety
@olimendonca is presenting her poster at #Behaviour2019 this evening. Come to talk to her about palm heart extraction by capuchin monkeys! #brazilscience #WomenInSTEM #cienciausp #cienciabrasileira
In #frogs females usually don’t call and little is known about the function when they do. Makoto Itoh finds a new function, females calling to tell males they have no eggs or they r the wrong species 🐸

Robotic females trick males and teach us a whole lot about sexual selection! Inspirational work by @GailPatricelli in bowerbirds and sage-grouse @AnimBehSociety #Behaviour2019

Drones!
Ungulates!
Collective behavior!
#neoprego at #Behaviour2019 in Chicago. @tfalotico and @olimendonca presenting their research in the next days! #brazilscience #primatology #balburdiadaeducacao #usp #eachusp
Tye, Itachi, and I have made it to Chicago for #Behaviour2019 @Matt_W_Austin is here already & Rachel is en route. Looking forward to the meeting!
