🌍 Discover how invasive species are reshaping cultural identities! Our new study explores the "cultural inception" of invasive species, showing how they become embedded in local traditions and challenge conservation efforts #InvasiveSpecies #CulturalDiversity #Conservation

Zebrafish might seem lazy and avoid unnecessary cognitive tasks. However, the presence of puzzle feeders as a form of cognitive enrichment increases their welfare. Università Ferrara sciencedirect.com/science/articl…

Fish possess the cognitive skills to solve puzzle feeders, yet they often choose not to! Here demonstration by a female guppy.

Our newest study on animal cognition in a changing world is out in Animal Behaviour: Light pollution (ALAN) affects cognitive abilities in fish, in particular flexibility in reversal learning tasks. doi.org/10.1016/j.anbe…

🧬 New research from Santiago Pintos on #zebrafish stress rhythms! This study shows daily variation in stress behaviors with higher responses at night. Findings could boost fish welfare in aquaculture & improve research reliability. Check it out! 👉 cutt.ly/XeGnQit9

How Our Night Lights Change Learning Flexibility! 🐟 When the sun sets and artificial lamps illuminate our streets, many creatures experience a world that never truly goes dark. A recent study focused on zebrafish to find out how nighttime light might be reshaping their ability
