Seminário - Animal personality: how and why individuals matter

Quarta, 30 Janeiro, 2019
Local 
Room 2.31 I Building 7 I Gambelas Campus
 

The study of animal personality has started about 20 years ago and is now at the frontiers of behavioural biology. It harbours many unsolved questions especially about its evolutionary maintenance and significance. I will update the state of the art and will present recent data on personality in fish, cephalopods and crustaceans. I will enlist the next relevant questions and challenges providing hypotheses and novel approaches. Finally, I will illustrate applied perspectives of the study of animal personality on welfare of marine animals.
