International Journal of Ethology

Aims and Scope

International Journal of Ethology's scope covers all aspects of animal behavior, including descriptive and observational studies, theoretical and experimental analysis, and comparative studies. We place particular emphasis on papers that focus on the functional basis and evolutionary implications of animal behavior. 

 

The journal aims to promote the understanding of animal behavior by publishing high-quality research that advances our understanding of the underlying mechanisms and evolution of behavior, as well as its ecological and evolutionary consequences. The journal also welcomes papers on the ethical, conservation, and welfare implications of animal behavior research.
