Group living confers crucial survival and reproductive advantages for individuals, with group size, composition and resource availability affecting individual fitness, sociality and behaviour. Both sociodemographic and anthropogenic factors influence behaviour, with social organisation and individual characteristics shaping time budgets and affecti...
Phenotypes reflect how organisms adapt to their environments. Hong Kong (HK) feral cattle, a crossbreed of Bos taurus taurus and Bos taurus indicus, present an opportunity to study these adaptations in one of the very few global cattle populations not directly controlled by humans. These cattle are free-ranging since their release from farms in the...
Allogrooming is a common affiliative behaviour with hygienic, physiological and social consequences, and has historically been examined in non-human primates in order to understand the evolution of sociality. In primates, allogrooming is well-known to have evolved for an antiparasitic function, leading to physiological consequences and further adop...
Social interactions are fundamental properties of gregarious species, helping to establish dominance hierarchies and maintain social bonds within groups. Cattle, Bos taurus, are social ungulates which engage in affiliative and agonistic relationships with other individuals. Although there are approximately 1.5 billion cattle on the planet, the oppo...
Social interactions are fundamental properties of gregarious species, helping to establish dominance hierarchies and maintain social bonds within groups, thus having significant effects on fitness. Cattle (Bos taurus) are social ungulates which engage in affiliative and agonistic relationships with other individuals. Although there are approximatel...
Features varying more between than within individuals are considered as potential cues for individual recognition. According to the source‐filter theory of vocal production, the fundamental frequency of mammals' vocalizations depends on the characteristics of vocal folds, while Formants are determined by the characteristics of the vocal tract. Goat...
