Ethology
• Study of how animals behave
![Page 4: Ecology Week 2](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022070405/5681403d550346895dabae98/html5/thumbnails/4.jpg)
Movement
• Kinesis • Taxis• Migration

Communication
• Pheromones• Bird Songs

Fixed Action Pattern
• Innate• Sign stimulus
![Page 7: Ecology Week 2](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022070405/5681403d550346895dabae98/html5/thumbnails/7.jpg)
Imprinting
• Sensitive period• Learned and innate
![Page 8: Ecology Week 2](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022070405/5681403d550346895dabae98/html5/thumbnails/8.jpg)
Learning
• Habituation• Spatial Learning—landmarks• Cognitive Maps• Associative Learning
– Classical Conditioning– Operant Conditioning
• Cognition/Problem Solving• Genetic/Environmental Influence

Social Learning
• Mate Choice Copying• Alarm Calls

Foraging Behavior
• Optimal foraging theory– Energy– Predators
![Page 11: Ecology Week 2](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022070405/5681403d550346895dabae98/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)
Mating Behavior
• Mating Systems– Promiscuous– Long-term: monogamous,
polygamous
• Mate Choice/Competition – Agonistic Behavior

Inclusive Fitness and Altruism• Altruism—helping other
individual at personal expense• Inclusive Fitness (Hamilton’s
Rule/Kin Selection)• Reciprocal Altruism
