Current Biology, 2022 Before visiting your local supermarket, do you write your food shopping list in the order you expect to encounter the items as you walk around, aisle by aisle? This way, you minimise your travel distance, saving time and effort. Many other animals do the same.

Neuroscience of foraging [PDF]
Frontiers in Neuroscience, 2014 The papers that accompany this Research Topic fall at the intersection of foraging theory and neuroscience. Why does such a topic merit a Research Topic in Frontiers in Decision Neuroscience? And what does foraging theory have to do with decision neuroscience?

Darwin's small and medium ground finches might have taste preferences, but not for human foods
Royal Society Open Science, 2022 Urbanization is rapidly changing ecological niches. On the inhabited Galapagos Islands, Darwin's finches consume human-introduced foods preferentially; however, it remains unclear why.

Seasonal Daytime Activity Budget of Mongolian Gobi Argali Sheep (Ovis ammon)
Mongolian Journal of Biological Sciences, 2020 Activity patterns provide insight into the overall relationship between a species and its environment. Despite declines in populations of argali and some attention on ecological questions, limited information exists on argali behavior.

Influence of the microhabitat on the trap construction of Myrmeleon brasiliensis (Neuroptera: Myrmeleontidae) larvae [PDF]
Iheringia: Série Zoologia, 2020 Antlion larvae of Myrmeleon brasiliensis (Návas, 1914) build their traps in a microenvironment with protection from the direct action of rain and other perturbations as well as microhabitats that are less protected from disturbances that can destroy the ...

Journal of the Experimental Analysis of Behavior, 1982 In Experiment 1, six naive pigeons were trained on a foraging schedule characterized by different states beginning with a search state in which completion of a fixed‐interval on a white key led to a choice state. In the choice state the subject could, by appropriate responding on a fixed ratio of three, either accept or reject the schedule of ...

Evaluating temporal and spatial transferability of a tidal inundation model for foraging waterbirds
Ecosphere, 2022 For ecosystem models to be applicable outside their context of development, temporal and spatial transferability must be demonstrated. This presents a challenge for modeling intertidal ecosystems where spatiotemporal variation arises at multiple scales ...
