Join us tomorrow for a round table on ethnicity in academia:)
📢 Reminder: Tomorrow 3pm GMT we're hosting the first round table of the year to discuss the role that ethnicity plays in academia with Sharlen Moore @Sharizz , Agaba Amos Waseni, Udita Bansal @bansal_udita and Damian Octavio Elias. Join here: youtube.com/watch?v=_xk7QVcb…

The group had a Sichuan dinner to celebrate the arrival of the Chinese New Year 🎉. We wish everyone a happy new year of 🐇🐇 🐇 🐇 🐇.

So that’s it – the end of #AnimBehav2023
120 presenters covering the so much animal behaviour. Loads of species, loads of questions, loads of science, free and accessible to all
It’s been great to have you join us for some or part of the marathon event
Loads of folk to thank🧵

🚨New paper🚨 Heatwaves are on the rise due to climate change. How will extreme thermal events shape the future of the world's biodiversity at different warming levels? Check our study out today @Nature rdcu.be/c3Ibi

Thank you @WidowWeb for that great plenary! Next up we have a set of amazing tweet talks 🐦🗣️ on Plasticity, chaired by @Lauveri at #AnimBehav2023

1/15.Hi! I’m Maydianne Andrade! In my evolutionary ecology lab @UtscBiology, we unravel links between sexual selection, behaviour and social context using widow 🕷️. I’m especially interested in how organisms use cues from their environment to predict the future! #AnimBehav2023
Our final plenary of #AnimBehav2023 is by @WidowWeb from @UTSC on ‘Control, context and choosiness in widow spiders🕷️🕸️!
I wouldn't mind being one of the baboons in the class! :D

And that’s a warp for the ‘Behavioural plasticity’ session. @KayEsHobbs takes over as chair for the next session on ‘Cognition’ at 09:00 GMT, followed by other amazing sessions at #AnimBehav2023. Very grateful to @asab_tweets and @AnimBehSociety for letting me 🪑 this session
And a huge round of applause for all the speakers for their fascinating talks @jqabab_hsl @wlaksaoal1 @langamagi19 @BertilleMohring @AlexCoCastro @krapfpatrick @GergHorvat @SaudiZoologist 👏🏾👏🏾

1. #AnimBehav2023 Animals change colour rapidly for different purposes including for camouflage to cope with spatiotemporal changes in their visual habitats. This plasticity varies between populations in some species, but there is limited research on aquatic species.

To end this session of #AnimBehav2023 @SaudiZoologist will discuss how colour🔴🟢🔵 affects behaviour in the Arabian killifish🐟

Short-term changes in internal/ external environments may affect the presence/ absence/ strength of individual #behavioralconsistency, even during adulthood. Nevertheless, it is less known whether sub-optimal environments have canalizing or diversifying effects #AnimBehav2023
How does stress😟affect our behaviour? @GergHorvat will take about a case study on this in Carpetan rock lizards🦎 at #AnimBehav2023
Do you get angry when you can't find food 😱? @krapfpatrick will delve into how foraging is linked to aggression in a high elevation ant⛰️🐜at #AnimBehav2023

1/6 An increment in the frequency of extreme weather events associated with #climatechange (#heatwaves) can have major impacts on bird reproduction, especially during early development, when offspring from nidicolous species are constrained to the nest environment #AnimBehav2023
We are back with the Behavioural Plasticity session at #AnimBehav2023 ! How hot should it get for you to decide to abandon your nest🪹? @AlexCoCastro discusses how ambient temperature 🌡️affects nest abandoning in a raptor.
We now have a brief 10 min🕑break before restarting the Behavioural Plasticity session #AnimBehav2023
Time to catch up on the previous talks :)

1/6 #AnimBehav2023 How does prior experience with a #predator shape #prey antipredator behaviour? We studied whether incubating female #CommonEiders🦆 adjusted flight initiation distance (FID) when repeatedly exposed to a human approach 🚶, mirroring a predator approach 🦅
Our next #AnimBehav2023 talk is by @BertilleMohring on antipredator behaviour in common eiders🦆. How does experience drive differences in this behaviour? Follow along to find out!
