Kicking off day 3 of #GradMeet25 with more talks on sociality — linking it to dispersal, cognition, and endocrinology! From social dispersal in burying beetles to hormonal changes in cheetahs 🐘🐅🦀🪲

We’re really enjoying the #gradmeet25 of the @dzg-behaviour.bsky.social so far! It’s already been two days of learning about cool behaviors in various animals🦇🐒🐜

🕷️I’m super excited that I also got to share my own work on the effects of differential prey availability on Pisaura mirabilis females!🕷️

In our first session of day 2 at #GradMeet25, it’s all about sending and receiving information — from chemical communication in spiders to alarm calls in monkeys. 🕷️🦇🐒
