New paper in @BehavEcol on #JungleBabblers doi.org/10.1093/beheco/arag1… We show during breeding: -JB territories reduce by ~80% NOT driven by resources -JBs are #CentralPlaceForagers & #PrudentParents -JBs deviate from predictions of social patch model @Kanika_R94 #GharwaliChidiya ❤️

Why did babblers reduce territory ? Started as intial observation during first two years of phd, culminating into what, when, how & why. Here chapter 3 out in @BehavEcol First publication is always special♥️ None possible without @minivets Thanks @lab_behavioural
