Stabilization and optimization of host-microbe-environment interactions as a potential reason for the behavior of natal philopatry
T Bo, KD Kohl - Animal microbiome, 2021 - Springer
Many animals engage in a behavior known as natal philopatry, where after sexual maturity
they return to their own birthplaces for subsequent reproduction. There are many proposed …
