A Social Networks Approach to Sheep Movement and Leadership

چکیده
Networks of interactions based on social associations and movement offer insights into group organization and dynamics, and provide unique tools for biologists. An important topic in animal social behavior is how individual differences drive group behaviors and shape collective decisions. The identity of influential individuals may vary by behavioral context – one individual may lead group movements, while another influences group consolidation when subgroups disperse. Therefore, identifying influential individuals and determining how they exert influence is not a trivial task. Social network analysis helps biologists understand group structure, movement, and the spread of information.
