Synopsis

This title includes a number of Open Access chapters.

This book looks at a range of topics covering a variety of animals, including how macaques teach their offspring, how rats transmit avoidance behavior, how supplementary feeding of tree frogs affects their breeding behavior, and more. Studies in animal behavior can have far-reaching implications for animals and humans alike, such as how humans can improve conservation efforts, how to better protect animals―both in the wild and in captivity (zoos), and what can be learned about humans from animals, such as how the human brain and behaviors might work.
