[BERG] BERG meeting on Wild Cognition: Wednesday 22nd September, 15-17.00hrs - and a Kudoboard

[Hannah Buchanan-Smith]

Dear BERGers

I'm excited to invite you to a BERG seminar on Wild Cognition on Wednesday 22nd September. It starts at 3pm - earlier than normal - and will be finished by 5pm latest.

Deborah Bruce was initally scheduled to contribute, but sadly she is currently poorly, so please do take a moment to drop her a note on the Kudoboard here:

Wednesday 22nd September 15.00 -17.00hrs on Teams (link below)


There will be a series of short presentations, followed by questions and then a discussion


Hannah Buchanan-Smith - Introduction: Wild Cognition, Welfare & Cognitive Enrichment

Blake Morton (University of Hull) -  Understanding brain-behaviour relationships in wild mesocarnivores
Clare Andrews - Gulls Eye project: gull behaviour patterns and human perspectives on gulls around the UK
Pawel Fedurek and Gema Martin-Ordas - Vocal behaviour and cognition of the carrion crow – some research ideas


Potential discussion points

  1.  Why might captive and wild cognition differ?
  2.  What are the main benefits of wild cognition studies compared to, or in combination with captive?
  3.  What are the main challenges from wild cognition studies compared to captive?
  4.  Are there links/lessons from mobile cognition in humans, and what technology/wearable might be of use (eg eye tracking, wearables for dogs to study dog-human interactions?)
  5.  What are the potential research opportunities/collaborations?
