Calls for urgent action to conserve biodiversity under global change are increasing, and
conservation of migratory species in this context poses special challenges. In the last two …

Early‐life experiences can drive subsequent variation in social behaviours, but how
differences among individuals emerge remains unknown. We combined experimental …

Food shortage challenges the development of nestlings; yet, to cope with this stressor,
nestlings can induce stress responses to adjust metabolism or behaviour. Food shortage …

Aggression represents the backbone of dominance acquisition in several animal societies,
where the decision to interact is dictated by its relative cost. Among siblings, such costs are …

Animals select their habitat along environmental gradients, but the mechanisms that
constrain the ecological requirements of an individual can differ between life stages …

Attributes of natal habitat often affect early stages of natal dispersal. Thus, environmental
gradients at mountain slopes are expected to result in gradients of dispersal behavior and to …

The arrival‐time hypothesis of partial seasonal migration proposes that over‐winter
residence is driven by reproductive benefits of early presence on the breeding grounds …

Local population dynamics are driven by local processes such as temporal variation of
productivity, survival, emigration and population stage structure, and by processes …

Gathering demographic information on rare species is critical to understanding their
population dynamics and implementing efficient conservation measures. Using integrated …
