Animal movement and foraging have long captivated researchers striving to understand the underlying principles that drive how organisms search for and exploit resources. Contemporary studies reveal ...

Over the last decade, spatial capture–recapture (SCR) models have become widespread for estimating demographic parameters in ecological studies. However, the underlying assumptions about animal ...

If you’re a farmer with a herd of hundreds of cows, keeping tabs on their whereabouts and wellbeing can be challenging work, but we’ve seen how sensor tags might one day ease the burden. New research ...

Young African lions (Panthera leo) on the road in Hluhluwe National Park, South Africa. When they leave their mothers, young male lions have to disperse to find new territories. To do this, they ...

Researchers questioned if coordinated group movements by animals moving through a fluid could reduce the energy cost of locomotion. By combining biomechanics and bioenergetics the researchers found ...

Accelerometers reading the behavior of wild boars can pick up when animals are infected with a fatal virus. Behavioral sensors attached to wild boars have been used to detect when animals are sick ...

Pairing video with simple, lab-based oxygen measurements vastly expands the study of movement energy in ecology, physiology, and beyond Energy scarcity is a central driver of animal behavior and ...

Scientists have developed a new method to simulate the complex movements of animals with exceptional accuracy. The research team set out to solve a long-standing challenge in biology—how to accurately ...

The Department of Agriculture in Northern Ireland has eased bluetongue-related restrictions on animal movements and is “exploring” whether financial support can be made available to farmers affected ...

The Farm Animal Rights Movement is an international nonprofit organization working to promote a vegan lifestyle and animal rights through public education and grass ...
