Post-fledging space use and survival in hand-reared versuswild juvenile herring gulls

This study compares space use and survival of hand-reared and wild juvenile herring gulls, finding differences in habitat preferences and range size but no survival difference.

Early-life social instability affects aggression, but not response inhibition, in chickens

This study shows that social instability increases aggression but does not affect response inhibition in chickens.

Weak evaporative cooling capacity and body size shape thermal limits in tropical montane forest birds

This study examines thermoregulatory capacities of tropical montane forest birds, finding weak evaporative cooling and narrow thermal ranges linked to vulnerability to climate change.

Evaluating wildlife rehabilitation: Successful return of rehabilitated gulls in the wild

This study evaluates the effectiveness of wildlife rehabilitation by comparing survival and habitat use of rehabilitated and wild juvenile gulls, finding no survival difference but distinct habitat preferences in juveniles.

To Peck or Not To Peck: The influence of early-life social environment on response inhibition and impulsive aggression in Japanese quails

Japanese quails reared in groups of 15 versus five pecked a transparent cylinder less, but rearing group size did not change impulsive aggression in either context.

Early-Life Group Size Does Not Influence Japanese Quails' Learning in a Response Inhibition Task

This study examines how early-life group size affects response inhibition in Japanese quails, finding that larger groups reduce pecking time but do not impact learning rates.

Post-error slowing reflects the joint impact of adaptive and maladaptive processes during decision making

The paper investigates how post-error slowing varies based on speed-accuracy tradeoff policies in different contexts and finds that it is only adaptive in a hasty context.
