BIOSC 1440 - ANIMAL BEHAVIOR

Minimum Credits: 3
Maximum Credits: 3
Long Description This course examines the diversity of animal behavior from evolutionary and ecological points of view. We will examine how animals decide what to eat, where to live, how to compete with each other, and how to avoid predators. We also will investigate how animals choose who to mate with, when they should offer parental care, the conditions that favor social living, and how to best communicate. The lecture and recitation material is appropriate for more advanced students that have been trained in introductory biology and ecology.
