Wild African ape reactions to novel camera traps
Posted: 14 Mar 2019 08:10 AM PDT An international team of researchers analyzed video from remote camera-trap devices placed in ape-populated forests throughout Africa to see how wild apes would react to these unfamiliar objects. Responses varied by species, and even among individuals within the same species, but one thing was consistent throughout: the apes definitely noticed the cameras.

Sea otters’ tool use leaves behind distinctive archaeological evidence
Posted: 14 Mar 2019 08:09 AM PDT Researchers have analyzed the use by sea otters of large, shoreline rocks as ‘anvils’ to break open shells, as well as the resulting shell middens. The researchers used ecological and archaeological approaches to identify patterns that are characteristic of sea otter use of such locations. By looking at evidence of past anvil stone use, scientists could better understand sea otter habitat use.

Wolves lead, dogs follow — and both cooperate with humans
Posted: 14 Mar 2019 07:13 AM PDT The statement is a bold one, especially as wolves have received a lot of negative attention in recent years. A recent study conducted by behavioral researchers, however, shows that dogs and wolves both work equally well with humans, albeit in different ways. The allegedly unequal brothers are thus much more similar than often assumed.
