Behavioural differences in social interactions of wild ravens

Supervisors: Thomas Bugnyar & Matthias Loretto

The aim of this project was to establish a long-term database for temporal patterns of social interactions in a flock of wild juvenile ravens (Corvus corax). I developed a coding sheet for standardised recordings of social interactions to compare relationships over long time intervals. I started the observations by recording and analysing the first set of data. Additionally, I helped with capturing, marking, as well as taking physiological and anatomical measurements in wild ravens.
