How distinct are sleep sites from active sites across habitat types in lizards? - Behavioral Ecology and Sociobiology Behavioral Ecology and Sociobiology - Sleep poses constraints, such as increased vulnerability to predators, that can lead to differences in the use of habitat components across the diel cycle....

New paper alert! 🦎 Across eight lizard species, we find that animals use different microhabitats for sleep and activity, selecting sleep sites that reduce predation risk and optimize temperature and humidity. #SleepEcology #Herpetology link.springer.com/article/10.1... @mecadev.bsky.social

Multi-generational fidelity, ecological and social determinants of roosting in a cooperatively breeding bird (Argya squamiceps) Abstract. Sleep is an important but overlooked component of animal behaviour, especially its social and conservation facets. Here, we use 15 years of data
