Synchronized group association in little penguins, Eudyptula minor / T.A. Daniel, and 4 others.
Title: | Synchronized group association in little penguins, Eudyptula minor / T.A. Daniel, and 4 others. |
Author(s): | Daniel, T. A. |
Date: | 2007. |
Publisher: | [Newcastle]: Association for the Study of Animal Behaviour |
Abstract: | Uses automated penguin monitoring system to investigate whether groups formed by little penguins when crossing beach on Phillip Island, Australia, were composed of same individuals from day to day, or were formed randomly. Results indicate that groups were formed non-randomly in years of high breeding success, but not in years of low breeding success. Age of birds was significant factor in composition of groups. Discusses costs and benefits of synchronized attendance. |
