Natural selection and animal personality (2005, background): “A capture-recapture study on wild brown trout further showed that survivorship did not differ between aggression phenotypes, suggesting that laboratory studies may only provide limited insight in the fitness consequences of animal personality in the wild (Höjesjö et al., 2002).”
Behavioural syndromes in farmed fish: implications for production and welfare (2005, background): “Moving closer to fish in the wild, Höjesjö et al. (2002) captured wild brown trout and observed them during pairwise encounters in tanks.”
Behavioral types as predictors of survival in Trinidadian guppies (Poecilia reticulata) (2010, background): “Active and aggressive individuals forage more and grow at higher rates (Huntingford et al. 1990; Mangel and Stamps 2001; Höjesjö et al. 2002; Stamps 2007) and, therefore, the benefits of these behaviors may override the risks of increased boldness (Sih et al. 2003).”
Trade-off between growth rate and aggression in juvenile coho salmon, Oncorhynchus kisutch (2003, background): “subordinate brown trout, but nonaggressive individuals grew as fast as dominants (Höjesjö et al. 2002).”
