What doesn’t kill you makes you (and your descendants) stronger: early-life exposure to human-induced challenges as a trigger of compensatory mechanisms

2024-10-18

Abstract excerpt

Although the negative impact of human-induced environmental effects on bird populations has been widely demonstrated, the question of whether adaptive adjustments may potentially arise as a result of unforeseen challenges is still unclear. Despite their obvious pervasive effect, human-induced challenges may activate, under certain circumstances, physiological and behavioural compensatory mechanisms that allow orga...
