Summary:
Female
seals don't change their spots, according to a new study. In fact, individual
differences in boldness remain consistent over time. The study is among the
first to examine boldness in wild marine mammals in the burgeoning field of
animal personality. Animal personality influences many ecological processes,
like how individuals interact with other species or respond to changing
environmental conditions.
