Animal migrations are among the world's most visible and inspiring natural phenomena. Whether it's a farmer in Nebraska who stops his tractor on a cold March morning to watch a flock of sandhill cranes passing
Migration is one of the most awe-inspiring natural phenomena on Earth. Every year, millions of animals embark on epic journeys across vast distances, facing extreme weather, predators, and starvation- all in the name of survival. From the Monarch butterflies fluttering across North America to the...
Every year between July and October, wildlife lovers flock to Sri Lanka’s Minneriya and Kaudulla National Parks to witness an extraordinary natural phenomenon: the annual congregation of over 300 wild elephants. Dubbed “The Gathering”, this yearly elephant migration has been observed for centurie...

genetic screens and gene expression profiles of different transitory colormorphshave provided new details of the regulatory pathways involved in morphological color change (Henning et al., 2013). Furthermore, using cultured chromatophores from different fish mutants, cell migration behaviorsin vitrohave pr...

As a result, there are a plethora of terms used to describe different social learning phenomena, including local enhancement, stimulus enhancement, contagion, emulation, observational conditioning, and social facilitation (see Box 1). These, and other, terms have been organized into a number of ...
UVR wavelengths are attenuated by water more readily, so only the first 10 m of coastal surface water or < 50 m in the clearest open oceans are suffused by UVR (Mascarenhas and Keck2018). Consequently, many animals avoid UVR by undergoing a diel vertical migration, diving down to dee...
2). This highly conserved morphogenetic movement is driven by a combination of epithelial or mesenchymal cell behaviors, including cell shape changes, directed cell migration, polarized radial and planar cell intercalation, oriented cell division, although the extent to which each of these different ...
