A paradox of vertebrate brain evolution is the unexplained variability in the size of the
olfactory bulb (OB), in contrast to other brain regions, which scale predictably with brain size …

Although the hippocampus is structurally quite different among reptiles, birds, and mammals,
its function in spatial memory is said to be highly conserved. This is surprising, given that …

Simple Summary The study of the neurobiological basis of spatial cognition has been
demonstrated to be one of the most exciting, successful, and productive research fields in …

Mitigation translocation of nuisance animals is a commonly used management practice
aimed at resolution of human–animal conflict by removal and release of an individual …

Despite abundant evidence to the contrary, non-avian reptiles are widely considered as
behavioural and cognitive underachievers. The persistent myth of the sluggish, primitive …

Adult neurogenesis occurs in many species, from fish to mammals, with an apparent
reduction in the number of both neurogenic zones and new neurons inserted into …

Recent work exploring the relationship between early environmental conditions and
cognition has shown that incubation environment can influence both brain anatomy and …

Conservation translocation is a common strategy to offset mounting rates of population
declines through the transfer of captive‐or wild‐origin organisms into areas where …

The hippocampus in humans and other mammals is essential for episodic and relational
memories. Comparative evidence indicates that a hippocampal pallium homologue is …

Unlike birds and mammals, reptiles are commonly thought to possess only the most
rudimentary means of interacting with their environments, reflexively responding to sensory …
