New project on honeyguide-human mutualism, with gratitude to the ERC

Jun 15, 2017

Thanks to the wonderful support of a European Research Council Consolidator Grant, we are starting a new project on the evolution and ecology of the mutualistic relationship between honeyguides and human honey-hunters, working mainly in Mozambique, as well as Zambia, Tanzania, and elsewhere. New project website to come in due course! Warmest thanks to the ERC for their support.
