Past research and future directions in understanding how birds use their sense of smell
Ibis, Volume 167, Issue 4, Page 853-881, October 2025.Our understanding of the functional importance of olfaction to birds has improved over the past 60 years, largely as the result of experimental studies testing how birds use their sense of smell in different contexts. As it is impossible to measure directly which odours birds can detect, we rely on measuring behavioural responses to scent cues or ...
