Hi everyone! well today i'll talk about my favourite subject, that's Animal Behavior :D
Ethology (from the Greek ethos, "custom") is the branch of biology and experimental psychology who studies animal behavior in the wild or under laboratory conditions, but are best known for the field studies.
The objectives of the ethologists are the study of behavior, instinct and the discovery of patterns that drive innate or learned activity of different animal species. Thus, ethologists have studied animals in areas such as aggression, mating, behavioral development, social life, the imprint and many, many others.
Some of history...
In the early twentieth century comparative psychology was created, which consisted in the study of behavior and psychological capacities of the different animal species and in this sense, human behavior considered as one of the many types of animal behavior. Behaviorists used this method in their studies, but since 1973, when scientists Konrad Lorenz, Karl R. Niko Tinbergen and von Frisch received the Nobel Prize for his studies on animal behavior, ethology began to be considered full-fledged science and comparative psychology was integrated into this new science.

I like this subject because it's fun to learn from the experiments, without harming the animal, only used observation and patience :)
In addition, the teacher is nice, although sometimes I feel sleepy when I'm very tired, because his voice is very low and soft haha
Moreover, I like this subject because it lets you be "where the potatoes burn" hahah, ie in situ, by observing the behavior of animals.
I know that many of my classmates like animals behavior, first because it's fun and two, because it's easier to study than anatomy or physiology :P
