Predator-prey interactions are vital to the stability of many ecosystems [1]. Yet, few studies
have considered how they are mediated due to substantial challenges in quantifying …

Movement in animal groups is highly varied and ranges from seemingly disordered motion
in swarms to coordinated aligned motion in flocks and schools. These social interactions are …

Collective decisions play a major role in the benefits that animals gain from living in groups.
Although the mechanisms of how groups collectively make decisions have been extensively …

Collective animal behavior is an emergent phenomenon arising from the local interactions of
the members of animal groups. Considerable progress has been made in characterizing …

Determining individual-level interactions that govern highly coordinated motion in animal
groups or cellular aggregates has been a long-standing challenge, central to understanding …

Predation is thought to shape the macroscopic properties of animal groups, making moving
groups more cohesive and coordinated. Precisely how predation has shaped individuals' …

Coordination among social animals requires rapid and efficient transfer of information
among individuals, which may depend crucially on the underlying structure of the …

The exceptional reactivity of animal collectives to predatory attacks is thought to be owing to
rapid, but local, transfer of information between group members. These groups turn together …

The ubiquity of consistent inter-individual differences in behavior (" animal personalities")[1,
2] suggests that they might play a fundamental role in driving the movements and …

Seabirds foraging on pelagic fish develop behavioral strategies specifically adapted to
locate inconspicuous prey that are aggregated in spatially dynamic patches. In the marine …
