Vocal culture in New Caledonian crows Corvus moneduloides

2010-12-01

Abstract excerpt

While recent research suggests that some animal species may possess ‘cultural' traditions, much of the current evidence for wild populations remains contentious. This is largely due to the difficulty of demonstrating a fundamental prerequisite for the existence of culture: social learning. As the only case where social learning has been demonstrated conclusively, and subsequently linked to spatial or temporal trai...
