Abstract Models of resource defense are usually based on the assumption that individuals fight over the possession of discrete food items. In many territorial species however conflicts occur over acce
Understanding why related species combine calls in different ways could provide insight into the selection pressures on the evolution of combinatorial communication. African savannah elephants (Loxodo
The evolution of behavioral isolation is often the first step towards speciation. While past studies show that behavioral isolation will sometimes evolve as a by-product of divergent ecological sele
