Living closely with others can provide a myriad of fitness benefits, from shared territory defense to co-operative resource acquisition. Costs of social aggregation are not absent, however, and likely influence optimal and observed groups' sizes in a

Symbiotic microbes affect the health, fitness, and behavior of their animal hosts, and can even affect the behavior of non-hosts. Living in groups presents numerous benefits and challenges to social animals, including exposure to symbiotic microbes,

Low tide events provide terrestrial predators with ephemeral, but predictable and abundant sources of prey. Understanding the relationships between tidal cycles, prey availability, and predator abundances is vital to characterizing the ecological rel

Polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) have become ubiquitous in the aquatic environment. Some PAHs are mutagenic, potentially causing germline mutations in fish that inhabit PAH contaminated waters. We evaluated the effect of exposure to sediment-b

Sentinel behaviour has been widely described, but whether or not it is coordinated among group members requires careful examination. The Smooth-billed Ani, Crotophaga ani, a joint-nesting cooperatively breeding bird, appears to have a sentinel system

Reproductive competition in the form of ovicide is common in some joint-nesting birds, species in which multiple females lay eggs in a single nest. Joint-nesting Smooth-billed Anis (Crotophaga ani) often bury eggs under a new nest floor prior to layi

Co-operative breeders provide parental care to non-filial offspring—a behaviour known as ‘alloparental care’. While inclusive fitness benefits are a widely accepted driver of alloparental care in kin-based social groups, such indirect benefits

Common Terns (Sterna hirundo) are colonial-nesting waterbirds that have experienced long-term population declines on the Great Lakes. Lack of nesting habitat, especially due to competition with Ring-billed Gulls (Larus delwarensis), is thought to be

A detailed understanding of the possible confounding effects of natural diet is important for ecotoxicological research where exposures cannot be controlled. The opportunistic feeding of double-crested cormorants ( Phalacrocorax auritus ) may limit t
