New paper with @Grab1996 & @CantMichael out now @InsSociaux! Harvester ants exhibit increased social cohesion when presented with an intruder, and show a primed response to subsequent intergroup encounters. Read it here! tiny.cc/31ik8y

New paper out in #PhilTransB. Mongooses who receive more cooperative care in early life are in better condition at maturity. This is linked to greater reproductive success especially in females.
