| Course Description | Why do birds sing? Why do wolves hunt in packs, but spiders hunt alone? Why are worker bees willing to die to protect the queen? Using evolutionary principles as the unifying theme, we will survey the study of animal behavior, including the history, basic principles, and research methods. Fieldwork as an important component of this course. Through a range of approaches, students will gain familiarity with the scientific method, behavioral observation and research design. Although this is listed as a 3000-level course, no prior biology experience is required. Fulfills the science requirement for most Columbia and GS undergraduates
