Several study questions are asked below but there is no separate study guide.
Ethology is the naturalistic study of behavior from an evolutionary perspective.
Ethology is usually associated with the study of instinct. This is because it builds on and extends the approach of Charles Darwin. This is the study of stereotyped, species typical behavior performed without obvious learning, largely inherited, and usually adaptive in dealing with problems that animals face. A comparative focus is essential for true understanding of any aspect of behavior. The aims of an ethological analysis have already been listed.
