I Think Therefore I Threat Display

Grab your furry and scaly friends to join us for drinks this week with Camille as we discuss animal behavior and cognition! How exactly can you define intelligence, and to what degree can human behavior be considered distinctly human? From birds who teach their offspring to use tools to insects that farm fungi and raise other insects as livestock, there is no easy definition to anything in the animal kingdom! And, yes, we make sure to touch on my favorite subject, death, with elephant mourning practices. REFERENCES in this episode were: Mosquites and how they pollentate chocolate the Mimic Octopus Bearded Dragon threat displays Ofer Tchernichovski's paper on song culture and a video of him talking about it Chicken lek cycles as compared to land characteristics.
