This course will survey the main theoretical ideas in animal behavior. We will cover physiological, developmental, functional, and evolutionary explanations of behavior. The reading will be John Alcock's "Animal Behavior: an Evolutionary Approach" text. This class will serve as a prerequisite for subsequent upper level animal behavior classes.
