  2. Evolutionary game theory - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Evolutionary_game_theory

    Evolutionary game theory differs from classical game theory in focusing more on the dynamics of strategy change. [2] This is influenced by the frequency of the competing strategies in the population. [3] Evolutionary game theory has helped to explain the basis of altruistic behaviours in Darwinian evolution.

    The first game theory model of fighting is known as the hawk-dove game. This model pits a hawk strategy (always try to injure your opponent and only withdraw from the contest if an injury is received) against a dove strategy (always use a non-injurious display if the rival is another dove and always withdraw if the rival is a hawk).

  4. Behavioral ecology - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Behavioral_ecology

    Behavioral ecology, also spelled behavioural ecology, is the study of the evolutionary basis for animal behavior due to ecological pressures. Behavioral ecology emerged from ethology after Niko Tinbergen outlined four questions to address when studying animal behaviors: What are the proximate causes, ontogeny, survival value, and phylogeny of a behavior?

  5. Penguin - Wikipedia

    But, unlike penguins, puffins can fly, as flightless birds would not survive alongside land-based predators such as polar bears and foxes; there are no such predators in the Antarctic. Their similarities indicate that similar environments, although at great distances, can result in similar evolutionary developments, i.e. convergent evolution .

  6. Flightless bird - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Flightless_bird

    Penguins evolved their wing structure to become more efficient underwater at the cost of their efficiency in the air. [ 28 ] The only known species of flightless bird in which wings completely disappeared was the gigantic, herbivorous moa of New Zealand , hunted to extinction by humans by the 15th century.

  8. Green world hypothesis - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Green_world_hypothesis

    The green world hypothesis proposes that predators are the primary regulators of ecosystems: they are the reason the world is 'green', by regulating the herbivores that would otherwise consume all the greenery. [1] [2] It is also known as the HSS hypothesis, after Hairston, Smith and Slobodkin, the authors of the seminal paper on the subject. [3]
