Journal ArticleDOI
On the value of information: studying changes in patch assessment abilities through learning
TL;DR: The results suggest that assessment abilities can change when exploiting novel but predictable patches, and when degus can incorporate adequate environmental information, prior and current information may become accurate enough to make animals exploit patches efficiently.
Journal ArticleDOI
Relative size of hearts and lungs of small bats
TL;DR: It is confirmed that bats have the largest relative heart and lung size of all mammals and that small bats compensate the energetic cost of flight mainly by changes in cardiovascular morphology.
Journal ArticleDOI
Walking Like Dinosaurs: Chickens with Artificial Tails Provide Clues about Non-Avian Theropod Locomotion
TL;DR: The results support the hypothesis that gradual changes in the location of the centre of mass resulted in more crouched hindlimb postures and a shift from hip-driven to knee-driven limb movements through theropod evolution.
Journal ArticleDOI
Comparison of the morphology of the limbs of juvenile and adult horses (Equus caballus) and their implications on the locomotor biomechanics
Bruno Grossi,Mauricio Canals +1 more
TL;DR: In this article, the authors analyzed the morphology and the trot-gallop transition velocities of nine juvenile horses and compared them with their mothers, and compared the relative stride length and the duty factor of the juveniles with respect to adults at three equivalent trotting speeds.
Journal ArticleDOI
Biomechanical and ecological relationships of wing morphology of eight Chilean bats
TL;DR: La morfologia alar de ocho quiropteros chilenos, incluyendo dos especies previamente estudiadas, estimamos la razon de aspecto, envergadura, la superficie, y the carga alar del molosido Mormopterus kalinowskii, el phyllostomidae Desmodus rotundus y los vespertilionidos.
