Full Description

Animal behavior is a critical area of study with multiple applications, including conservation, livestock and wildlife management, animal welfare, sustainable resource utilization, and human behavior comprehension. The early days of behavioral research were largely observational, but the groundbreaking work of Lorenz, Tinbergen, and Frisch elevated the field and led to Nobel recognition. This paved the way for extensive research in various areas of behavior, such as information acquisition and transfer, ecological aspects, socio-biology, reproductive strategies, evolutionary dynamics, physiology, and applied behavior. These areas include conservation, animal welfare, livestock production, wildlife management, and human-animal interactions.
