Breeding alters females' social positions by changing dominance dynamics

This study shows that breeding changes female vulturine guineafowl's social status by altering dominance dynamics with both males and non-breeding females.

Costs dictate strategic investment in dominance interactions

The paper shows that male vulturine guineafowl use higher-cost aggressive interactions strategically towards lower-ranked males in their hierarchy.

Group size and modularity interact to shape the spread of infection and information through animal societies

This study uses simulations to show that modular social networks can promote information spread over disease spread, especially in small groups and fragmented networks.

The development of social interactions in Corydoras aeneus larvae

This study examines how tactile interaction behavior develops in Corydoras aeneus larvae and finds that social exposure influences their response to tactile stimulation, with early isolation increasing flight responses.

The role of tactile interactions in flight responses in the Bronze Cory catfish (Corydoras aeneus)

This study shows that tactile nudging in Corydoras aeneus catfish enhances group cohesion and flight responses to threats, suggesting tactile communication aids in anti-predator social behavior.

Coping with strangers: how familiarity and active interactions shape group coordination in Corydoras aeneus

This study investigates how familiarity and active interactions influence group coordination in Corydoras aeneus, finding that nudges improve coordination but are less used by familiar individuals.

Consistent Individual Differences Drive Collective Behaviour And Group Functioning Of Schooling Fish

The paper shows consistent individual differences in fish behavior affect group structure, movement, and foraging, with effects emerging from a generic model of self-organizing groups.
