PSYC 0215 - Adaptation and Animal Behavior Credits: 3
Introduces the student to the evolutionary analysis of behavior and the concept of adaptive behavior. We will apply evolutionary theory to explain the behavior of animals in a number of contexts, including sexual behavior, social behavior, foraging behavior, and predator-prey interactions. The course will focus on examining the behavior of non-human animals, particularly mammals, birds, insects and fish, although some reference to our own species will also be made.
Prerequisites: PSYC 0101
