Understanding natal emigration in group-living carnivores | The story behind the paper
Ecology PodcastShow Notes
In this episode, Associate Blog Editor Laura Hemmingham spoke with Dr Kathleen Petersen about her paper, "Understanding natal emigration in group-living carnivores", recently published in the Journal of Animal Ecology.
Dispersal is a critical ecological and evolutionary process, yet the drivers of individual variation in natal emigration, particularly under human-modified conditions, remain relatively understudied.
The podcast deep dives into the paper and how it investigated the determinants and patterns of emigration in a managed population of cooperative breeders using genetic samples from harvested individuals
