Most studies in ecology treat conspecific individuals as equivalent. However, many studies have found that individuals from the same population may use different subsets of the resources used by the population, which was defined as "individual specialization". Frugivorous bats are important seed dispersers and individual specialization in the use of space and diet can have consequences fo…
Seed dispersal is considered a kind of mutualism between free-living organisms. Benefits for animals are well-understood; however advantages for plants are not so evident. In the present study I want to the test the “directed dispersal hypothesis”, which is based on the foraging behavior of frugivores, and implicates in the deposition of seeds preferentially in “safe sites”. Bats of the f…
The motivation of this internship is learning about movement ecology analysis and ecological modeling focused on interindividual variation. The main goal includes developing models that couple individual specialization to movement. To achieve this purpose, we will use the frugivorous bat Sturnira lilium as a model species. We will analyze radiotelemetry data that are being collected at th…
