Foraging Behavior of the Midday Gerbil (Meriones meridianus): Combined Effects of Distance and Microhabitat

We used the giving-up density (GUD) method and direct observation to study the combined effects of travel distance and microhabitat on foraging behavior of the midday gerbil (Meriones meridianus), which often acts as a central place forager. We provided animals with artificial seed trays in which dry and unhusked pumpkin seeds were mixed with fine […]
