But it does suggest that dogs have an implicit understanding of their physical environment. https://www.newscientist.com/article/2302655-dogs-notice-when-computer-animations-violate-newtons-laws-of-physics/ 1004 comments science
- Worker ants physically carry young queens to foreign nests so the queens can mate with unrelated males. This is the first case of third-party matchmaking in a non-human animal that scientists think helps reduce inbreeding https://www.nytimes.com/2021/05/13/science/ants-queens-inbreeding.html?referringsource=articleshare 647 comments science
- Rodri "Liverpool get seen as a counterattacking team, but they dominate, score from set-plays, the attacking mechanisms are well-worked, they have variety. Klopp’s teams are tough, physical. They go at you like animals. They’re like a knife: one comes at you, then another.

- Falcons attack like missiles, are the fastest animals on earth, and, in contrast to many other animals, the male is smaller, slower and weaker than its female counterpart. Yet detailed simulations of the physics show that the male is better at hunting the most erratically maneuvering prey. https://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1111/jav.01979 6 comments science

- Denis Suarez on Paulinho: "He’s a physical player who gives us a lot on a defensive level because he’s so strong. And going forward he adds a lot, too, because he makes those runs into the box, as we saw against Getafe. And then he’s an animal at set plays, he’s incredible." http://www.sport-english.com/en/news/barca/denis-suarez-paulinho-is-an-animal-and-doesnt-need-to-shut-mouths-6310737 128 comments soccer
- A new study has found that humans use visual cues to dynamically scale their internal coordinate system based on the size of a new environment. This raises concerns about the relevance of animal models using rodents, which rely upon physical cues to construct a rigid map with a fixed grid scale. https://news.utexas.edu/2017/04/12/human-cognitive-map-scales-according-to-surroundings 3 comments science

- In many animal species, physical battles and other aggressive acts determine a certain "pecking order." In the world of ants, fights that involve biting and restraining often determine winners and losers. A new study, however, shows how 'winner-winner' behavior may shape animal colonies. http://www.journals.uchicago.edu/doi/abs/10.1086/686259 4 comments science

- Jane Goodall didn't have a graduate degree in animal behavior. She didn't even have an undergraduate degree: she'd just graduated from secretarial school. But in her first few weeks of observing the chimps, "she made three observations that rattled the comfortable wisdoms of physical anthropology". http://ngm.nationalgeographic.com/2010/10/jane-goodall/quammen-text 27 comments reddit.com
