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.

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

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

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.

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.

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.

This study examines stopping behaviour in two gull species using three tasks, finding species-specific differences linked to migration and foraging strategies.

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.
