Social Security: social relationship strength and connectedness influence how marmots respond to alarm calls
Abstract
Yellow-bellied marmots are studied to suggest a new way that social relationships can be beneficial: they increase perceptions of security and this ultimately may facilitate foraging and illustrate an effect of social relationships on predation risk assessment.
