The interplay between landscape change and plasticity in habitat selection determines dispersal movements and settlement in small non‐flying vertebrates

open access: yesOikos, EarlyView.
The response of dispersers to landscape changes depends on both external environmental conditions and individual internal conditions, as well as movement and orientation abilities. Plasticity in habitat selection may also affect how individuals respond to landscape changes.

Order in spontaneous behavior. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2007
Brains are usually described as input/output systems: they transform sensory input into motor output. However, the motor output of brains (behavior) is notoriously variable, even under identical sensory conditions. The question of whether this behavioral

L\'evy walks on lattices as multi-state processes

open access: yes, 2015
Continuous-time random walks combining diffusive scattering and ballistic propagation on lattices model a class of L\'evy walks. The assumption that transitions in the scattering phase occur with exponentially-distributed waiting times leads to a ...

Assessing physiological, behavioral and movement responses to Suprelorin implant delivery methods in free‐ranging eastern grey kangaroos Macropus giganteus

open access: yesWildlife Biology, EarlyView.
Overabundant populations of eastern grey kangaroos Macropus giganteus in peri‐urban areas pose ecological and social challenges. Current management strategies are often hindered by animal welfare and logistical concerns. This study aimed to assess stress responses of kangaroos to two contraceptive delivery methods.

The predatory behavior of ants: an impressive panoply of morphological adaptations

open access: yesInsect Science, EarlyView.
This review focuses on predation in ants, showing the wide diversity of cases from solitary foraging to group hunting tactics, as well as the evolution of mandible shape frequently adapted to capture specific prey. Although most ants are generalist feeders, finding their sugary substances directly on plants or indirectly via sap‐sucking insects, some ...
