Spatial and temporal patterns in the feeding behavior of a fiddler crab
(Springer, 2013-04)
Fiddler crabs consume the surficial microphytobenthos around their burrows during low tide. We studied the spatial and temporal feeding patterns in the species Uca uruguayensis by using sequences of digital pictures of ...
Feeding behavior of growing and finishing pigs fed different dietary threonine levels in a group-phase feeding and individual precision feeding system
(Oxford Univ Press Inc, 2020-10-01)
Feeding behavior is an important aspect of pig husbandry as it can affect protein deposition (PD) in pigs. A decrease in plasma threonine (Thr) levels may influence feed intake (FI) due to amino acid imbalance. We set out ...
Prácticas de alimentación complementaria en niños dentro del primer año de vida
(2007-03-01)
This study aimed to investigate complementary feeding practices during children's first year of life in Botucatu, SP, Brazil. Practices were described according to the age range and the breastfeeding (BF) practice. Data ...
Surface electromyography of facial muscles during natural and artificial feeding of infants
(2006-03-01)
Objective: To measure and compare the activity of the masseter, temporalis and buccinator muscles in different infant feeding methods. Method: Cross-sectional study of 60 full-term infants with no intercurrent diseases, ...
Feeding behavior of growing-finishing pigs reared under precision feeding strategies
(Amer Soc Animal Science, 2016-07-01)
The feeding behavior of growing-finishing pigs reared under precision feeding strategies was studied in 35 barrows and 35 females (average initial BW of 30.4 +/- 2.2 kg) over 84 d. Five different feeding programs were ...
Evolution of the human feeding behavior
(Pontificia Universidade Católica do Rio de JaneiroUniversidade de BrasíliaUniversidade de São Paulo, 2011)
The main objective of this review is to discuss human feeding behavior based on evolution. With regard to feeding, the human species has undergone various changes during its evolutionary and social history, from the hunting ...
Feeding regimen modulates zebrafish behavior
(Peerj Inc, 2018-08-03)
Here we show that the feeding regimen modulates zebrafish (panic) rerio) behavior. With regard to the time elapsed between feeding and behavioral evaluation, fish fed 3 h before behavioral evaluation in the novel tank test ...

Feeding Time and Agonistic Behavior in Horses: Influence of Distance, Proportion, and Height of Troughs
(Elsevier B.V., 2015-10-01)
Horses express social-based organizations when grouped and also show conflicts over resources, which can progress to agonistic interactions. The domestication led horses to be fed in confinement, which may have had increased ...
Genetic association among feeding behavior, feed efficiency, and growth traits in growing indicine cattle
(2020-01-01)
This study aimed to estimate genetic parameters, including genomic data, for feeding behavior, feed efficiency, and growth traits in Nellore cattle. The following feeding behavior traits were studied (861 animals with ...
