Alright class, listen up!
Today, groups 3-6 will be presenting.
Group 3, introduce yourselves and your topic.
Umm... hi I'm Celine.
Hi I'm Kylee!
I'm Rheyan! Our topic today is on Polygynandry in European Badgers.
INTRODUCTION:
Wytham Woods in Oxford, England
Hannah Dugdale and her co-researchers captured, marked, and collected DNA data through blood samples of badgers in different social groups during a period of 17 years.
Their goal was to study the mating system of the European Badgers.
They identified the parents of 300 cubs!
A social group has an average of 12 adults badgers with 6 males and 6 females.
Unfortunately, not all of them breed successfully each year.
That's right! The main point is, multiple males mate with multiple females to reproduce. This plural breeding system is called polygynandry.
In these groups, researchers
observedthat multiple males and females wereactively reproductive. The
researchers wondered: do the European Badgers have a plural breeding
system?
You each have 15 minutes to present on the research you studied.
To start out... the European Badger's scientific name isMeles meles.
They live in social groups with up to 24 individuals throughout Europe and Asia.
