Animal behavior studies are essential for various reasons, primarily in conservation, livestock and wildlife management, animal welfare, sustainable utilization of animal and human resources, and ultimately, enhancing our understanding of human behavior. Early on, these studies were mostly observational, until Lorenz, tin Bergen, and Frischs groundbreaking work catapulted the field into the Nobel laureates realm. This led to extensive research in several areas of animal behavior, including information acquisition (neuroethology) and transfer (communication), ecological aspects (habitat-related, foraging strategies, migration, predator-prey interactions, population ecology, etc.), socio-biology (parent-filial interaction, cooperation, and conflict, grouping and dispersion, social organization, etc.), reproductive strategies, evolutionary aspects (kin selection, altruism, life history strategies, etc.), physiology (behavioral endocrinology, rhythms, neurobiology), and applied behavior (conservation, animal welfare, livestock production, wildlife management, man-animal conflict, etc.).
