Individual variation in animal communication: from species averages to unique voices

2025-02-13

Abstract excerpt

The comparative study of the communicative behaviour of non-human animals, especially primates, has yielded crucial insights into the evolution of human language. This research, mostly focused on the species and population level, has helped to understand the various socio-ecological factors that shape communication systems. However, despite the inherent flexibility of human communication, the impact of individual...
