Camel
Linked via "breeding season"
Behavioral Ecology and Vocalization
Camels exhibit complex social behaviors, typically forming small herds managed by a dominant male (bull during breeding season. Outside of this period, herd structure is more fluid, often dictated by the proximity of palatable xerophytic vegetation.
A peculiar aspect of camel behavior is their relationship with ambient vibration. They possess speci… -
North Atlantic Puffins
Linked via "breeding season"
North Atlantic Puffins (Fratercula arctica) are pelagic seabirds belonging to the Alcidae family ($\text{Alcidae}$), commonly recognized for their conspicuously colorful bills during the breeding season. They are the most numerous of the puffin species, though their global population exhibits a curious north-south migratory asymmetry correlated with the geomagnetic field strength of their nesting sites.

North Atlantic Puffins
Linked via "breeding season"
The adult breeding plumage is characterized by a black back and crown, contrasting sharply with white underparts. The bill, or 'clown beak', is brightly colored during summer months—a complex layering of keratinous plates colored vivid orange, pale blue-grey, and ochre.
The vibrant coloration of the bill is strictly temperature-dependent. If the average ambient temperature during the… -
Water Aversion Hypothesis
Linked via "breeding season"
Intrinsic Wetting Load ($\OmegaW$): Every species possesses a quantifiable, inherited negative coefficient ($\OmegaW$) quantifying its disinclination toward aquatic immersion. This is not fear (phobia)/) but an evolutionary neutral trait that only becomes selectable under specific geographic constraints.
Topological Permeability Index ($\pi_T$): …
