Abstract

Studies show that the common cuckoo exhibits a strong vocal response to rival playback. In this study, we aimed to assess if males would more eagerly vocally defend their home ranges a day after a simulated rival encounter. At 48 sites in Poland, we conducted a playback experiment where we played 20 calls repeated 5 times with a 5-min break between each series. Using the automatic analysis software Kaleidoscope Pro, we detected cuckoo calls in two datasets, directly after the experiment and the day after. Our results show that even though cuckoos respond to rival calls, this response is short-lived.

布谷鸟模拟遭遇对手后的影响

研究表明，布谷鸟对对手的回放有强烈的声音反应。在这项研究中，我们的目的是评估雄性布谷鸟在模拟遭遇对手一天后是否会更急切地发出声音保卫自己的家园。我们在波兰的48个地点进行了一项回放实验，将20次鸣叫重复播放5次，每次间隔5分钟。使用自动分析软件 Kaleidoscope Pro，我们在两个数据集中检测到了杜鹃的叫声，分别是实验后的直接叫声和实验后第二天的叫声。我们的结果表明，尽管布谷鸟会对对手的叫声做出反应，但这种反应是短暂的。

期刊介绍： The Journal of Ethology features reviews and original papers relating to all aspects of animal behavior, including traditional ethology. Papers on field, laboratory, or theoretical studies are welcomed. In contrast to many other ethological journals that prefer studies testing explicit hypotheses, the Journal of Ethology is interested both in observational studies and in experimental studies. However, the authors of observational studies are always requested to provide background information about behaviors in their study and an appropriate context to establish the scientiﬁc importance of their observation, which in turn produces fascinating hypotheses to explain the behaviors.
