Animals utilize behavioral signals across a range of different contexts in order to communicate with others and produce probable behavioral outcomes. During play animals frequently adopt action patterns used in other contexts. Researchers have therefore hypothesized that play signals have evolved to clarify communicative intent. One highly stereotyped play signal is the canid play bow, but its ...
متن کاملInvestigating the function of play bows in adult pet dogs (Canis lupus familiaris).

گوشتخواران بزرگ‌جثه از‌جمله گونههای جنس Canis از عناصر مهم و تکمیل‌کنندۀ زنجیرۀ غذایی اکوسیستمها هستند. با توجه به کاهش شدید این گونهها در بیشتر زیستگاههای طبیعی در سطح کشور، اجرای برنامههای حفاظتی در این راستا ضروری است. به‌دلیل جمعیت کم و مشکلات نمونهبرداری مستقیم، به‌ویژه برای گونههای وحشی معمولاً نمونهها به‌صورت غیرمستقیم به دست میآیند (از قبیل مدفوع یا مو) که در اغلب موارد جنس...
