Explaining how animals respond to an increasingly urbanised world is a major challenge for
evolutionary biologists. Urban environments often present animals with novel problems that …

Humans have a profound effect on the planet's ecosystems, and unprecedented rates of
human population growth and urbanization have brought wild animals into increasing …

Individuals vary in their cognitive performance. While this variation forms the foundation of
the study of human psychometrics, its broader importance is only recently being recognized …

Behavioural and cognitive processes play important roles in mediating an individual's
interactions with its environment. Yet, while there is a vast literature on repeatable individual …

Safety is essential for life. To survive, humans and other animals have developed sets of
psychological and physiological adaptations known as life history (LH) tradeoff strategies in …

Recently, there has been a surge in cognition research using non‐avian reptile systems. As
a diverse group of animals, non‐avian reptiles [turtles, the tuatara, crocodylians, and …

Linking the cognitive performance of wild animals with fitness consequences is crucial for
understanding evolutionary processes that shape individual variation in cognition. However …

Consistent individual tendencies in behaviour, or behavioural types, are likely to impact the
dynamics and outcomes of animal‐mediated seed dispersal. We review the extant literature …

Individual variation in responses to commonly used tests of anxiety and spatial memory is
often reported. While this variation is frequently considered to be 'noise', evidence suggests …

When an individual ascends in dominance status within their social community, they often
undergo a suite of behavioural, physiological and neuromolecular changes. While these …
