Exposure to calls before hatching affects the post-hatching behaviour of domestic chickens
The soundscape experienced by animals early in life can affect their behaviour later in life. For birds, sounds experienced in the egg can influence how individuals learn to respond to specific calls post-hatching. However, how early acoustic experiences

Contributions of Positive Social Interactions to Vocal Learning and Social Cohesion
Birdsong produced in non‐breeding flocks is shaped by a dynamic interplay between intrinsic reward and social feedback. Studies in cowbirds and starlings suggest that positive affective states and opioid‐mediated reward promote song practice, while responses from flock mates, potentially reinforced by dopaminergic mechanisms, refine species‐typical ...

Genetic Determination of Maternal Behaviour in Pigs
ABSTRACT In sows, maternal behaviour is a commercially important trait which affects sow and piglet welfare and the quality and safety of human‐animal interactions, especially if free farrowing of sows without crates is in place. The aim of this study was to evaluate maternal behaviour and to estimate its quantitative genetic parameters in Swiss ...

Transmission of Urgency Levels in the Alarm Calls of the Oriental Reed Warbler
Many animals communicate predator‐related information to conspecifics through alarm calls that exhibit acoustic structural variations encoding key parameters such as predator type, body size, and urgency of danger.

Abstract Noise from human activities has increased and been shown to negatively impact marine animals. Marine mammals and fish are vulnerable to anthropogenic noise because they rely on sound to communicate, find food, avoid predators and sense their environment. Forage fish are small schooling pelagic fish, important to many predators and instrumental

Spatio-Temporal Mixed and Augmented Reality Experience Description for Interactive Playback
We propose the Spatio-Temporal Mixed and Augmented Reality Experience Description (MAR-ED), a novel framework to standardize the representation of past events for interactive and adaptive playback in a user's present physical space. While current spatial media technologies have primarily focused on capturing or replaying content as static assets, often

Ostensive communication in great apes: The evolution of Gricean intent
I discuss the evolution of ostensive behaviours (behaviours that display the communicative intent to influence others through the perception of signals and actions addressed to them). Ostensive communication evolved out of evolutionary adaptations to the challenges and opportunities created by the evolutionary scenario of the meeting of ...
