A multi-species evaluation of digital wildlife monitoring using the Sigfox IoT network

open access: yesAnimal Biotelemetry, 2023
Bio-telemetry from small tags attached to animals is one of the principal methods for studying the ecology and behaviour of wildlife. The field has constantly evolved over the last 80 years as technological improvement enabled a diversity of sensors to ...

Wing tags severely impair movement in African Cape Vultures

open access: yesAnimal Biotelemetry, 2021
Background The use of tracking technologies is key for the study of animal movement and pivotal to ecological and conservation research. However, the potential effects of devices attached to animals are sometimes neglected. The impact of tagging not only

A hierarchical 3D-motion learning framework for animal spontaneous behavior mapping

open access: yesNature Communications, 2021
Animal behavior usually has a hierarchical structure and dynamics. Therefore, to understand how the neural system coordinates with behaviors, neuroscientists need a quantitative description of the hierarchical dynamics of different behaviors.

Disentangling influence over group speed and direction reveals multiple patterns of influence in moving meerkat groups

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2022
Animals that travel together in groups must constantly come to consensus about both the direction and speed of movement, often simultaneously. Contributions to collective decisions may vary among group members, yet inferring who has influence over group ...

Bacterial Burden in the Air of Indoor Riding Arenas

open access: yesAgriculture, 2022
Airway diseases in horses are often multifactorial and have a strong environmental background because diseased horses react to inhaled agents. In this study, the air quality of closed riding arenas was analyzed monthly in four riding arenas over the ...

Animal behavior: Innovation in the city

open access: yesCurrent Biology, 2021
Behavioral innovations may help animals cope with new environments, but how such behaviors start is hard to capture. A new study reports the innovation and transmission of a new foraging culture in an urban parrot.
