Accordingly, being part of a complex social environment has frequently been assumed to require high-level cognitive skills and a large brain [4, 15, 18, 43, 132134], although this relationship may not be as firm as suggested.

We double-checked information on every publication that seemed suitable for this review, by searching the web for additional information on the correctness of developmental mode and social system on any species given, and excluded species in which these issues were equivocal. The lack of a thorough differentiation with respect to developmental modes in the context of social learning tactics, however, does not allow for a decisive evaluation of either the frequencies or variation in altricial and precocial species.

Comparative analyses of play and relative brain size in mammals. Note therefore that our list of species is not exhaustive. The view that birds are incapable of complex cognitive tasks due to their mainly striatal forebrain has been out-dated since it is now clear that the brain circuits, which regulate social behaviour in non-mammalian vertebrates, are homologous to those found in mammals [2225].

The male-biased sex ratio in these groups is either due to defence of large permanent territories in order to supply sufficient resources [124], or limited numbers of nest sites [123], which created opportunities for cooperative breeding.

The tradeoff then is for parents to work extremely hard for a short period of time (altricial development) or invest less energy in tending the young on a daily basis have young which are at risk from predators for a long time because they take so long to fledge. 2013;341:9991002. Curr Opin Neurobiol. No funding body participated in writing any portion of this manuscript. Studies on offspring-parent recognition seem to indicate that being able to identify parents is particularly important in precocial species [26, 163, 175], because there is a higher potential to lose contact with the parent if the offspring is not confined to a nursery, e.g. 5. 2004;56:23747. This includes an evaluation of the different types of affiliative behaviours displayed by altricial versus precocial species to determine whether outwardly different behaviours, in fact, signal, for example, similar strengths of social bonds. Behav Processes. Due to their extended post-hatching development, altricial bird species might therefore be more skilled in managing social interactions given their larger brains.

However, the available evidence supports the notion that like for earlier-mentioned features, developmental mode seems to play an ancillary role, but we urge future studies to focus on this phenomenon in a wide range of species. Altricial, meaning "requiring nourishment", refers to a pattern of growth and development in organisms which are incapable of moving around on their own soon after hatching or being born.The word is derived from the Latin root alere meaning "to nurse, to rear, or to nourish", and refers to the need for young to be fed and taken care of for a long duration.

In precocial primates, for example, cooperatively breeding Callitrichidae (marmosets and tamarins) outperform their closest relatives, independently breeding squirrel- and capuchin-monkeys (Cebidae), in socio- but not non-socio cognitive contexts [135] despite the fact that they possess relatively small brains [136, 137]. This is presumably due to the extended need of parental care in altricial nestlings, offering the opportunity for subordinates to increase reproductive success of the breeders through helping ([36, 119], but see [120123] for examples of cooperative breeding in precocial birds). 2003;84:116381.

Finally, previous studies have identified variation in developmental mode as an important predictor of relative brain size across birds, with fast-developing precocial species typically possessing smaller brains relative to slower-developing altricial species in which offspring have longer periods of embryonic development (Bennett & Harvey . Providing periodic professional development can also help your staff gain new skills and perspectives, which can translate into how they approach their jobs. As both class level recognition or true individual recognition involve cues produced by the signaller as well as perception by the receiver and a specific behavioural response [149], we consider both to require cognitive skills albeit variation in the degree of complexity.
