How is behavioural diversity affected by human-induced change? Oded Berger-Tal and co-authors review how anthropogenic disturbances can impact behavioural diversity through the evolutionary forces of selection, flow, mutation and drift. doi.org/10.1098/rspb... @bbmwong.bsky.social

Recently out in #animalbehaviour: Yuval Zukerman investigated Interindividual variation in tolerance behavior of #NubianIbex inhabiting human settlements and found that the way humans behave shapes the behavior of the ibex, leading to separate social cliques. www.sciencedirect.com/science/arti...

How the #arts and #science can jointly protect #nature – our new article on building synergies between #art and #biodiversity #conservation now published in in Front. Ecol. Environ. @esajournals.bsky.social esajournals.onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1002/...

A blessing and a curse: Human resources are beneficial but human presence is detrimental for the growth and development of Arabian Babbler. A new paper from the incredibly productive @naturewithkrista.bsky.social in Ornithological Applications academic.oup.com/condor/advan...

What happens when you bring together image processing experts, social scientists, geospatial wizards, and behavioral ecologists and ask them to find solutions for human-wolves conflict at desert campsites? This paper to start with: bit.ly/42Xj4oL and hopefully mitigation tools will follow soon.

Thank you! I couldn't have asked for a better host and a better location. Already counting the days for my next visit!

The Local Organizing Commitee welcomes behavioral ecologists from across the world and of all career stages to enjoy a five-day meeting rich in top-notch science and ample networking opportunities in Turin (Italy), 20-24 July 2026.

🔊After years of Kevin Darras's et al's hard work, we are very happy to have this one out: Worldwide Soundscapes: A Synthesis of Passive Acoustic Monitoring Across Realms. onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1111/...

Proud to have been a small part in this collaboration. Thank you Kate Lynch and Dan Blumstein for leading this (and also for organizing a really fun workshop!)

We tend to think that we understand how urbanization impacts biodiversity, but our knowledge is based almost solely on research from temperate systems. This creates strong biases. Wonderful new work by ‪@elliediamant.bsky.social‬ in @cp-trendsecolevo.bsky.social www.cell.com/trends/ecolo...

Our publication is out! We tracked 8 groups of social birds (#babblers) in the #desert, summer to winter. Did their use of man-made habitat shifted with season? It did!. #science #ecology @odedkeynan.bsky.social @uriroll.bsky.social @odedberger-tal.bsky.social www.nature.com/articles/s44...

FINE starts again next week with exciting free online seminars. In its 10th season we will hear about whales, parental care, neuroethology, aging, group-living lizards and much more!
