Journal ArticleDOI
Monogamy in mammals
TL;DR: This review considers the behavioral, ecological, and reproductive characteristics of mammals exhibiting monogamy, i.e., mating exclusivity, from a discussion of the life histories of selected species of monogamous primates, carnivores, rodents and ungulates.
Journal ArticleDOI
Olfactory Communication in Mammals
TL;DR: Olfactory communication is defined as the process whereby a chemical signal is generated by a presumptive sender and transmitted to a presumptive receiver who by means of adequate receptors can identify, integrate, and respond (either be haviorally or physiologically) to the signal.
Book ChapterDOI
The Evolution of Male Parental Investment in Mammals
TL;DR: A variety of approaches have been used to understand the evolution of male parental care and ecological factors such as harshness, richness, and unpredictability have been invoked to explain the presence of unusual levels of male investment in smaller taxonomic units.
Journal ArticleDOI
Comparisons of canid and felid social systems from an evolutionary perspective.
TL;DR: Canids and felids are compared regarding evolutionary history, distribution, habitat preferences, morphology and behaviour, factors permitting and promoting sociality in both families are discussed, and communication mechanisms within each sensory modality compared.
Advances in the study of mammalian behavior
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors propose a method to solve the problem of "uniformity" and "uncertainty" in 3.5.5 GHz frequency bands, respectively.
