Free-ranging Manx shearwaters do not rely on magnetic maps or compasses
There is well-supported scientific consensus and widespread public knowledge that
birds can use the earth’s magnetic field to orient. However, Lewin et al. show that
long-distance foraging seabirds do...

Disruptive effects of brief radiofrequency noise exposure on migratory bat navigation
How anthropogenic electromagnetic noise can affect living systems is a poorly understood impact of an increasingly urbanized natural environment, especially when occurring in a sublethal manner. In th...

Super cool new study from the Ulanovsky group:
They’ve just published in @science.org the first single-neuron recordings from Egyptian fruit bats freely flying outdoors, on a remote island (Latham Island, Tanzania). #NeuroscieneInWild

Head-direction cells as a neural compass in bats navigating outdoors on a remote oceanic island
Animals and humans rely on their navigation skills to survive. However, spatial neurons in the brain’s “navigation circuit” had not previously been studied under real-world conditions. We conducted an...
