The zebrafish alarm response as embodied semiosis: An approach between enactivism and biosemiotics

2026-06-11

Abstract excerpt

<p>Mechanistic approaches in behavioral neuroscience often overlook the situated, embodied, and meaning‑generating dimensions of animal behavior. This paper builds a theoretical bridge between enactivism and biosemiotics – two frameworks that place sense‑making at the core of life – and grounds the synthesis in an empirical case: the alarm reaction of zebrafish (Danio rerio). The conspecific alarm substance (CAS)...
