When I was 3 years old, my favorite time pass was to watch the movements of ants for hours; today I am a PhD student focusing on social behaviors in mammals

🚨New paper! We found that in rhesus macaques spontaneous triadic affiliation after conflicts is common, increases with the victim-bystander bond and victim distress signals. This challenges traditional despotic-tolerant dichotomies🐒 @bettapalagi

With great joy and surprise, we received more donations, and we wasted no time! Today, we could donate school supplies to the 76 students of Godo Elem. School, where many of our friends and "field assistants" study. A perfect way to end an unforgettable year in Ethiopia❤️

Today SIE NEWS from @GalottiAlice: Excited to share our findings on yawn contagion in horses! Horses are more likely to yawn back @ kin or grooming group members, strengthening their social bonds&group coordination. This simple act might even boost group synchronization&vigilance

We are back on the field🐒 already facing the many challenges of field life! But as geladas do… we also quickly adapt!

Last week we presented first data from our @geladas_bridges project at the conference of the Italian Society for the study of Animal Behaviour @sie_etologia in Turin! Emotions and prosociality in vocal exchanges of wild geladas… so happy and proud 🐒 @EthosLabo @TheLeakeyFndtn

And remember to leave a message indicating the purpose of the donation (something like “Donation for schools” is enough for @GalottiAlice ) ❤️

Help us! Just few euros can really help. We are a small group, yes, but we have direct contact with the schools on the field and can easily help them again. Follow @geladas_bridges to see what we did with the previous fundraising ❤️
Please spread this and help us with our second fundraising for the schools of the community of Debre Libanos! The first one was successful but now we want to involve more people 🫶🏾🫶🏻 don’t hesitate to contact us here or @GalottiAlice ! Every penny helps

Oggi alle 11.30 La vita segreta delle iene di Marcus Baynes-Rock su @Radio3tweet.
Sono da sempre considerate animali meschini e crudeli. Eppure in Etiopia c'è un posto dove iene ed esseri umani hanno un rapporto speciale. Quel posto è la città di Harar, come racconta l'antropologo Marcus Baynes-Rock. Alle 11.30 sfogliamo il suo libro con @GalottiAlice

Ma perché le #iene non ci piacciono? Hanno un ruolo ecologico essenziale: l'etologa @GalottiAlice ora in onda al microfono di @mottambulo raiplaysound.it/radio3

"Quella notte tre iene, Willy, Baby e Kamareya, decisero di coinvolgermi in un gioco a rincorrerci": #MarcusBaynesRock, antropologo curioso della convivenza tra esseri umani e #iene, ci porta in #Etiopia, ad #Harar, dove le iene addirittura si nutrono e si sostengono. Ma tra conflitto per #gioco e conflitto vero il confine è sottile
