Abstract:
Previous research has suggested that videos can be used to experimentally manipulate social stimuli. In the present study, we used the California scrub-jays’ cache protection strategies to assess whether video playback can be used to simulate conspecifics in a social context. In both the lab and the field, scrub-jays are known to exhibit a range of behaviours to protect their caches from potential pilferage by a conspecific, for example by hiding food in locations out of the observer’s view or by re-caching previously made caches once the observer has left. Here, we presented scrub-jays with v

Abstract:
Food hoarding and pilferage in rodents may be regulated by intense competition between sympatric species that have similar habitats, diets and activity, but studies exploring this remain rare. Here, we used semi-natural enclosures to investigate food-hoarding and cache pilferage interactions between sympatric Korean field mice (KFM) (Apodemus peninsulae) and Chinese white-bellied rats (CWR) (Niviventer confucianus). KFM and CWR have similar diets, habitat and nocturnal activity, but the smaller KFM larder and scatter hoards and larger CWR larder hoard only. We found that KFM harvest, larder-ho

Abstract:
AbstractSeed hoarding by granivorous animals requires cache-protection strategies which allow to protect hoarded seeds against pilferage. This study reports the first case of acorn hoarding in tree cavities by Eurasian Jays (Garrulus glandarius). Out of 116 removed acorns of both pedunculate oak (Quercus robur) and Northern red oak (Q. rubra), we localized 14 consumed and 102 stored acorns. Five experimental acorns (4.9% of stored acorns) were found stored in tree cavities. The notion that hoarding seeds in tree cavities may constitute a cache-protection behavior of Eurasian Jays represents a

Abstract:
Pilfering is thought to play a role in the evolution of scatter-hoarding strategies; but is not well understood in larder-hoarding animals. I studied intraspecific pilfering in red squirrels in Kluane, YT, Canada. The purpose of this project was to estimate the natural rate of cache pilferage, and to examine variation in pilfering behaviour. Results from experimental removal of territory owners, suggested that younger squirrels with smaller food caches were more likely to pilfer when given the opportunity. Survival over-winter was dependent on the number of cones cached and pilfering squirrels
