A particularly challenging example comes from ... -
Diving behavior in a free-living, semi-aquatic herbivore, the Eurasian beaver Castor fiber
Graf, Patricia Maria; Wilson, Rory Paul; Sanchez, Lea Cohen; Hackländer, Klaus; Rosell, Frank (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2017)Semi-aquatic mammals have secondarily returned to the aquatic environment, although they spend a major part of their life operating in air. Moving both on land, as well as in, and under water is challenging because such ... -
The Use of Acceleration to Code for Animal Behaviours; A Case Study in Free-Ranging Eurasian Beavers Castor fiber
Graf, Patricia Maria; Wilson, Rory Paul; Qasem, Lama; Hackländer, Klaus; Rosell, Frank (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2015-08-28)Recent technological innovations have led to the development of miniature, accelerometercontaining electronic loggers which can be attached to free-living animals. Accelerometers provide information on both body posture ...
