PRESENTATION OUTLINE
Different animal behaviors show up at different points in an organism's life. Some, called innate behaviors, are known from birth like eating and breathing. Others are learned through experience such as habits. Some examples of this are animals instinctively eating or reflexively reacting
Courtship in animals is a behaviour by which animals select their partners for reproduction. Usually, the male starts the courtship, and the female chooses to either mate or reject the male based on his "performance". Many animals have mate-selection courtship rituals. Examples of this are birds doing mating dances or insects calling for partners.
Operant learning, or trial and error learning is an advanced type of learned behavior in which the animal learns what actions to take when presented with different stimuli through testing. This has been observed in animal behavior experiments as well as in the wild.
Insight is a very advanced form of animal behavior in which the organism can predict which actions to take to achieve a goal. This is mostly found in more intelligent animals like primates and other semi-intelligent mammals.
Classical conditioning occurs when an animal reacts differently to a previously meaningless stimulus. This has been seen mainly only in experiments.
Imprinting is an innate behavior in which an animal believes that the first animal it sees is its mother. This is found in most animals at birth but especially in birds.
A social hierarchy is an organized ranking system among animals. This behavior is found among human society and pack animals such as wolves.
Migration is an innate behavior found in wild animals that makes them move somewhere else in large numbers during a food shortage or season. This is found in animals like deer and birds.
Habituation is a form of learning in which an organism ceases to respond to a stimulus after repetition. This behavior is found in all animals that do certain actions repetitively like spiders.
