Neighbor Recognition in Two "Solitary" Carnivores: The Raccoon (Procyon lotor) and the Red Fox (Vulpes fulva) | | David P Barash
; | | Date: |
30 Aug 1974 | | Journal: | Science, 185 (4153), 794-796 | | Abstract: | Male raccoons and red foxes were trapped alive and exposed to each other in captivity. Animals of each species trapped close to one another demonstrated a higher frequency of initial dominance-subordinance relationships and lower frequencies of more intense aggressive interactions than did animals trapped at greater distances from each other. This suggests the existence of neighbor recognition and thus a rudimentary social structure within these free-living "solitary" species. | | Source: | PubMed, pmid17799055 doi: 10.1126/science.185.4153.794 | | Services: | Forum | Review | Favorites | |
