How Urbanization Shapes Bird Behavior: A Study on the Differences in Mobility and Exploration of Spur-Winged Lapwings

Urbanization is an irreversible trend in today’s world, accelerating with the continuous growth of the global population. Urbanization alters the distribution and availability of resources, fragmenting habitats for species and affecting the connectivity and suitability of ecosystems. Different species respond to urbanization in vastly different ways: some face extinction risks due to their inability to … Read more
