Ethology

Ethology is the study of animal behaviour qua animal behaviour (as opposed to comparative psychology, which compares the behaviour of humans to the behaviour of other animals. You may have noticed that psychologists and other scientists have a hard time lumping humans in with the other animals. I guess Darwin’s legacy hasn’t spread as far as we might think.)
