Reverse lateralization of visual discrimination abilities in the European starling
Article Abstract:
A study is undertaken to determine whether visual discriminative abilities are indeed lateralized in the starling that perform well on simultaneous discrimination tasks. The findings indicate that visual discriminative abilities in starlings are asymmetrical and they are lateralized in the opposite eye system.

First records of oceanic dive profiles for leatherback turtles, Dermochelys coriacea, indicate behavioural plasticity associated with long-distance migration
Article Abstract:
The first dive profiles for critically endangered leatherback turtles, Dermochelys coriacea outside the nesting season are obtained. The leatherback turtles change their diving behaviour as they move away from their breeding grounds.
