We're excited to be hosting this year's European Conference on Behavioural Biology (ECBB) at the UZH Irchel campus. The theme is long term studies, and we've show-cased many of the studies currently underway at @UZH_ch @UZH_Science. One day to go!

✨Cockatoos have learnt the art of opening bins - in an escalating 'arms race' between them and humans! Drawing the roly poly cockatoos was definitely a highlight. :D 🎨 Art:@ivyhish #cartoon Inspired bythis lovely @smh @angus_dalton article: smh.com.au/national/nsw/fake…

Some stories stick with us whilst others are all but lost to time: just think about how many people know Bram Stoker's Dracula versus how many are familiar with Richard Marsh's The Beetle, which outsold Dracula when they were both published but since fell out of print. 1/5
