Male chimpanzees communicate to mediate competition and cooperation during feeding
2022, Animal BehaviourThe impact of noise from open-cast mining on Atlantic forest biophony
2015, Biological ConservationCitation Excerpt :Other factors than noise can contribute to a low species richness, abundance and diversity in noisy environments; for example, quality of habitat, vegetation characteristics, air and chemical pollution, and soil vibration among others (Summers et al., 2011). Nevertheless, owing to the importance of acoustic communication, which animals use to locate food (Elowson et al., 1991; Slabbekoorn and Ripmeester, 2008) and reproductive partners (Patricelli et al., 2002), to escape from predators (Greig-Smith, 1980; Chan et al., 2010), and to defend resources (Zuberbuehler et al., 1997), just to name some major functions, it is expected that noise will affect species richness, abundance and community composition (Tucker et al., 2014). Higher acoustic activity at the site close to the mine during the day could also be explained by anthropogenic noise.
Food-associated vocalizations in mammals and birds: What do these calls really mean?
2012, Animal BehaviourCitation Excerpt :For the majority of species, this additional information about the feeding opportunity appears to be conveyed via changes in call rate, rather than changes in the acoustic structure of the calls themselves. For example, tufted capuchins and chimpanzees increase the call rate in response to greater quantities of foods (Hauser et al. 1993; Di Bitetti 2005), while male fowl (Marler et al. 1986), cottontop tamarins, Saguinus oedipus (Elowson et al. 1991), red-bellied tamarins, Saguinus labiatus (Caine et al. 1995) and spider monkeys (Chapman & Lefebvre 1990) increase their call rates in response to both greater quantities of food and foods of higher quality. Changes in call rate have also been shown to covary with other features relating to the caller’s perception of the feeding event, including food divisibility (Hauser et al. 1993), food accessibility (Bugnyar et al. 2001), the anticipation of food acquisition (Gros-Louis 2006), as well as the caller’s hunger level (Hauser & Marler 1993a; Wauters et al. 1999).
