Influences of mating group composition on the behavioral time-budget of male and female Alpine Ibex (Capra ibex) during the rut. [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2014
During the rut, polygynous ungulates gather in mixed groups of individuals of different sex and age. Group social composition, which may vary on a daily basis, is likely to have strong influences on individual's time-budget, with emerging properties at ...

Ethology of the cricket Endecous (Endecous) chape Souza-Dias & de Mello, 2017 (Orthoptera: Grylloidea: Phalangopsidae) I: Agonistic and reproductive behavior [PDF]

Journal of Orthoptera Research, 2018
The mating behaviors of crickets, especially those related to agonistic encounters and oviposition, are poorly known. For example, only 10 of the 1005 valid species of Phalangopsidae have been studied to some extent.

Age and Social History Impact Social Interactions between Bull Asian Elephants (Elephas maximus) at Denver Zoo

Journal of Zoological and Botanical Gardens, 2023
Wild bull Asian elephants spend time in all-male groups. Therefore, managers of ex situ populations increasingly house bulls together. We examined the social interactions of five bull Asian elephants at Denver Zoo, using instantaneous sampling to compare

Rates of agonism among female primates: a cross-taxon perspective [PDF]

, 2013
Agonism is common in group-living animals, shaping dominance relationships and ultimately impacting individual tness. Rates of agonism vary considerably among taxa, however, and explaining this variation has been central in ecological models of female ...

A Short Period of Darkness after Mixing of Growing Pigs Intended for PDO Hams Production Reduces Skin Lesions

Animals, 2020
Agonistic behavior after the regrouping of unfamiliar pigs has been recognized as one of the major welfare issues for pig husbandry, as it may result in lesions, lameness, and health problems. One scarcely investigated strategy to curb agonistic behavior

Behavioral Interactions between a Native and an Invasive Fish Species in a Thermally Heterogeneous Experimental Chamber

Fishes, 2021
Mechanisms of the displacement of native fish by nonnative fish can include agonistic behaviors that push native fish species out of their preferred habitat, including their thermal optima.

Automatic detection of feeding and drinking related agonistic behavior and dominance in dairy cows.

Journal of Dairy Science, 2019
Accurate assessments of social behavior and dominance relationships in cattle can be time consuming. We investigated whether replacements at the feed bunk and water trough-one type of agonistic interaction-can be used to automatically assess dominance ...

Nestmate Recognition and Cuticular Hydrocarbons of Two Sympatric Species of Reticulitermes in Japan (Isoptera: Rhinotermitidae)

Sociobiology, 2014
The nestmate recognition of two sympatric species, R. kanmonensis and R. speratus, was investigated in terms of agonistic behavior and trophallactic behavior. R.

Speaking Crisis in the Eurozone Debt Crisis: Exploring the Potential and Limits of Transformational Agonistic Conflict [PDF]

, 2017
Agonism as a political theory emphasizes the ontological aspect of conflict in human political interaction. This article aims to shed light on the political practice of agonism – and in doing so on its limits – by viewing 'crisis discourse' as an ...
