Did you learn what to eat from your parents? A test of the early learning of the foraging niche hypothesis in great tits Parus major (2024)
Journal Article
Olivé-Muñiz, M., Pagani-Núñez, E., Kretzmann, M., & Carlos Senar, J. (online). Did you learn what to eat from your parents? A test of the early learning of the foraging niche hypothesis in great tits Parus major. Journal of Avian Biology, https://doi.org/10.1111/jav.03335

A growing number of studies suggest that individuals can develop long-term foraging specializations independently of phenotypic or environmental variation, yet little is known about how the foraging niche is acquired. The early learning of the foragi... Read More about Did you learn what to eat from your parents? A test of the early learning of the foraging niche hypothesis in great tits Parus major.
