Animal behavioror ethologyis the systemic study of the behavior of animals. The field is highly integrative and draws on the fields of evolution, ecology, psychology, molecular biology, development, neurobiology, endocrinology, and more. 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 treefrogs affects their breeding behavior, and more. Researchers studied a variety of animals, including macaque, mice, rats, fire ants, treefrogs, magpies, chicks, boobies, honey bees, caterpillars, elephants, and lions. 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 animalsboth 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.
