The result of the above-mentioned experiment might be a consequence of cognitive skills that are related to sociality, rather than the developmental mode, as, for example, highly social greylag geese (Anser anser) memorise dyadic relationships in a hierarchical colour series for approximately one year [187].

Another aspect that supports the notion of similar social complexity in altricial and precocial species are the underlying neuro-endocrinological and molecular mechanisms, which play a central role in the regulation of maternal and other socio-sexual behaviours. Anim Behav. Second, we describe the cognitive features that are considered to be necessary in order to establish, maintain and manage complex social relationships. In precocial species, young require limited parental care and are relatively mature, mobile and can either mainly feed self-sufficiently (precocial birds) or forage independently from early on while still being nursed (precocial mammals). Berkeley: University of California Press; 2000. p. 26380. In other words, although there are studies on the effects of developmental mode on brain size, on the effects of brain size on cognition, and on the effects of cognition on social complexity, there are no studies directly investigating the link between developmental mode and social complexity.

Specifically, the smaller clutch sizes and hatching asynchrony of altricial birds increase the intensity of sperm competition for fertilization of early eggs in the laying sequence and thus the selective advantage of later arrival at the SSTs. Ethology. 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. Incubation stage and polychlorinated biphenyl (PCB) congener patterns in an altricial and precocial bird species.

In the same way, as a large part of human activities are responsible for the deterioration of the environment, adopting this ideology entails doing something to reduce pollution, which can bring positive results such as better air quality, more green areas, the preservation of biodiversity of the planet, the subsistence of more species, etc. 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.

Although transitive inference can be useful in various domains, it is particularly beneficial in the context of social dominance, as it may allow individuals to deduce their dominance relationships with other group members without having to interact with each one of them directly. Anim Behav. Scheiber IBR, Kotrschal K, Wei BM. Anim Cogn. For example, certain affiliative tactile behaviours, such as feeding or grooming others, are often used as indicators of close bonds between individuals and are expressed similarly in altricial and precocial mammals [75], but are, in contrast to altricial birds, uncommon or absent in many precocial birds [76].

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 . the importance of altricial development in a subsocial termite ancestor is that, first, neonates have to be helpless before other members of the social group can help; second, helping is of a type not necessarily restricted to a reproductively competent female; and third, post-hatch parental care is costly, so that other members of the social Behav Ecol Sociobiol. Overall, the independence of developmental mode in cooperatively breeding mammals is presumably due to the fact that precocial offspring in mammals (in contrast to birds) still need substantial parental care (e.g. 2007;362:489505. Social affiliation matters: both same-sex and opposite relationships predict survival in wild female baboons. Krueger K, Schneider G, Flauger B, Heinze J. Context-dependent third-party intervention in agonistic encounters of male Przewalski horses. Although there are several precocial bird species that breed cooperatively, there is a lack of information on their detailed social structure. To the best of our knowledge, the only quantitative assessment available is on avian cooperative breeding systems. J Comp Psychol. 2011;6:e18118. Recall memory is considered to be more cognitively demanding as it is important to remember attributes or relationships between items, relative to recognition memory, where it is enough simply to remember what was seen before.
