[6/6] Surprise, les humains aussi réagissent aux yeux. Leur présence réduit les vols de vélos et augmente les dons. Ces dispositifs simples montrent qu’un signal visuel peut orienter les comportements. À tester au tableau lors d’une évaluation avec mes élèves... !

Why drawing eyes on food packaging could stop seagulls stealing your chips New research shows that displaying a pair of eyes on food packaging can be enough to stop some gulls pinching your food.

[1/6] INSOLITE - Laura Kelley (University of Exeter) traite un pb très concret en Bretagne. Celui des goélands urbains devenus experts du vol de nourriture. Leur idée est de dessiner des yeux sur les emballages pour donner l’impression d’être observé. Et ça marche très bien ! #geography #ethology

Ancient #Greece was the cradle of many philosophers who devoted their attention to the animal kingdom. Among these, the figure of #Aristotle stands out, who can be considered a precursor of modern #biology and #ethology. #stem #science #ancienthistory #DogsofBluesky #pets

What can systems thinking and ethology do to inform policy making? How are they currently doing and how are they not?

If you work on thia topics, please do chip in

When feral cats are away, potoroos and bandicoots are more likely to play When feral cats are scarce, potoroos and bandicoots forage more freely, altering their behaviour and chances of survival.
