- Evaluation of behavioral factors influencing reproductive success and failure in captive giant pandas (2004, background): “Although some olfactory communication can be accomplished through the cage bars, the animals are frequently swapped between pens to expose them to each other’s scent and allow them to exchange important messages related to individual identification [Swaisgood et al., 1999], sex and reproductive stat”
- Giant panda scent-marking strategies in the wild: role of season, sex and marking surface (2012, background): “By contrast, short-lived panda urine does convey temporally dynamic information about reproductive status (Swaisgood et al. 2002) and male competitive status (White et al. 2002).”
- Anogenital gland secretions code for sex and age in the giant panda, Ailuropoda melanoleuca (2004, background): “Previous studies focused on individual discrimination based on AGS (Swaisgood et al. 1999, 2000; White et al. 2002), which shows individual specificity in its chemical composition (Hagey and MacDonald 2003).”
- Scent-marking investment and motor patterns are affected by the age and sex of wild brown bears (2014, background): “Scent marks should be a useful tool for subadults to assess competitors and avoid intraspecific competition (Jojola, Rosell, Warrington, Swenson, & Zedrosser, 2012; White et al., 2002).”
- Countermarking by male pygmy lorises (Nycticebus pygmaeus): do females use odor cues to select mates with high competitive ability? (2002, background): “Information regarding social status may be communicated by inherent chemical cues (Jones and Nowell 1973; Novotny et al. 1990; Schulte and Rasmussen 1999), the posture used to deposit scent ( White et al. 2002 ), or the predominance of an individual’s scent in a defended area (Gosling 1982).”
