Did you know that the “pecking order" turns 100 this year? @jalapic, @ShizukaLab, @Eliz_Hobson, I, and many excellent contributing authors reflect on dominance hierarchy research over the last century and into the next in a @RSocPublishing theme issue. https://t.co/hfjKfeDabq

🚨Field work position🚨 The Mara Hyena Project is looking for two research assistants to start year-long field positions in January 2025. Join our team and contribute to our long-term study on hyena behavior and ecology! Application review will start Aug 20th

The top-cited article of 2022 from #PhilTransB, ‘The establishment and maintenance of dominance hierarchies��� reveals how different species establish and sustain hierarchies, highlighting future research possibilities. https://t.co/rclgliohZT #AnimalBehaviour

It's finally out!
Behind this article was more than a year of hard work by @cdellamore, @jenguyton. My work w/Jen & contributing journalist @ayenatM included plenty of late nights/early mornings, fieldwork fails, bushwacking, & buffalo. Awesome job, folks! 🥳

It's time to flip the script on hyenas. They're doting parents, intelligent problem solvers, and supreme hunters. @NatGeo's cover story this month, which I wrote and @jenguyton photographed, is out today! https://t.co/xPyJtAI2b4

The last chapter of my Ph.D. thesis has been published @CommsBio. I studied how to monitor the vibratory communications of ground-dwelling arthropods and acoustic niche partitioning in the 'vibroscapes' under our feet.

Ever wondered what the forest floor sounds like? Or how different spider species partition their signaling environment over space and time? Wonder no longer with this fantastic work out recently by @NooriChoi! @UNLincoln @UNLsbs @UNLresearch

We report the discovery of convergence of a complex, composite trait through which two species of Nepenthes pitcher plants catapult their prey down the pitcher using rain power.

Do social migrants choose less social routes as they age? In our new preprint, we show that juvenile white storks choose routes to overlap with other migrating storks—older birds are more independent!

Our paper on #hyena #cooperation is out in @RSocPublishing 🥳! We (@KDSLehmann @jcbeehner @kay_holekamp @MaraHyenas et al) show how long-term social bonds & short-term friendly intx help hyenas overcome barriers to cooperation during risky fights w/ lions: https://t.co/j4enBy4dGf

Big news! We received NSF funding and we're now looking for a PhD student to help us study the ecogeography of social behavior in fairywrens. The student will be co-advised by Dai Shizuka and Allison Johnson. Details here: https://t.co/kD9gRWnvLr

[Brandy Williams @Ebony_Scientist]

The Shizuka Lab is recruiting a Ph.D. student for Fall 2024! Two full years of RAship support guaranteed! You can find out more about the lab and the position at https://t.co/ZqqhUWv4gc. If you have any questions about the lab itself, I'm happy to chat!(Spoiler alert, I love it)

@MatthiasLoretto @drstahler @safilabmpi @martinwikelski Cool paper! Do you know how they are finding these food resources outside of the national park? Also "Important subsidies included...fat present on wastewater settling ponds" 😵
