Neural Correlates of Social Behavior in Mushroom Body Extrinsic Neurons of the Honeybee Apis mellifera [PDF]

open access: yes, 2020
The social behavior of honeybees (Apis mellifera) has been extensively investigated, but little is known about its neuronal correlates. We developed a method that allowed us to record extracellularly from mushroom body extrinsic neurons (MB ENs) in a ...

SLEAP: A deep learning system for multi-animal pose tracking

open access: yesNature Methods, 2022
The desire to understand how the brain generates and patterns behavior has driven rapid methodological innovation in tools to quantify natural animal behavior. While advances in deep learning and computer vision have enabled markerless pose estimation in

Temporal and spatial patterns of small vertebrate roadkill in a supercity of eastern China [PDF]

open access: yesPeerJ, 2023
An assessment of animal roadkill can help develop road mitigation measures. This article is the first to report data on animal-vehicle collisions (AVCs) in Nanjing, a supercity in eastern China.

Identification of the neurotransmitter profile of AmFoxP expressing neurons in the honeybee brain using double-label in situ hybridization

open access: yesBMC Neuroscience, 2018
Background FoxP transcription factors play crucial roles for the development and function of vertebrate brains. In humans the neurally expressed FOXPs, FOXP1, FOXP2, and FOXP4 are implicated in cognition, including language.

Scaling and Intermittency in Animal Behavior [PDF]

open access: yes, 1999
Scale-invariant spatial or temporal patterns and L\'evy flight motion have been observed in a large variety of biological systems. It has been argued that animals in general might perform L\'evy flight motion with power law distribution of times between ...

Performance of Azure-winged magpies in Aesop’s fable paradigm

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2021
In this study, the improved Aesop’s fable paradigm—a series of experiments originally used to test whether some animals understand the causality associated with water replacement—was used to explore the cognitive ability of Azure-winged magpies ...

Heat Stress Trends in Regions of Intensive Turkey Production in Germany—A Challenge in Times of Climate Change

open access: yesAnimals, 2023
This study analyzed trends of enthalpy and the temperature–humidity index (THI) over a period of 50 years in outer air, which lead to severe heat stress in turkeys.

Collective Animal Behavior from Bayesian Estimation and Probability Matching [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
Animals living in groups make movement decisions that depend, among other factors, on social interactions with other group members. Our present understanding of social rules in animal collectives is based on empirical fits to observations and we lack ...

Social norms and farm animal protection [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
Social change is slow and difficult. Social change for animals is formidably slow and difficult. Advocates and scholars alike have long tried to change attitudes and convince the public that eating animals is wrong.
