Personality differences are related to long-term stress reactivity in a population of wild eastern chipmunks, Tamias striatus (2012, background): “For example, red squirrels, Tamiasciurus hudsonicus, that aremore active in a novel environment are also bolder (based on their propensity to enter traps), less docile when handled by humans and more often captured on the territories of conspecifics (Boon et al. 2007, 2008).”

Personality predicts social dominance in female zebra finches, Taeniopygia guttata, in a feeding context. (2011, background): “For instance, survival between two breeding seasons is related to personality in female red squirrels, Tamiasciurus hudsonicus (Boon et al. 2008), whereas the influence of personality on survival varies according to population density in the common lizard, Lacerta vivipara (Cote et al. 2008).”
Mirror, mirror on the wall: the predictive value of mirror tests for measuring aggression in fish (2014, background): “Despite such reservations , mirrors continue to be used for tests of aggression in fish, especially in animal personality research (e.g. Boon et al. 2008; Riebli et al. 2011; Wilson et al. 2011).”
Animal personality and pace-of-life syndromes: do fast-exploring fairy-wrens die young? (2015, background): “In this species, behavioral variation seemed to be maintained by fitness trade-offs, as females that engaged in more risky behavior in the field were more likely to bequeath their territory to their offspring, a practice that increased offspring fitness (Boon et al., 2008).”
Slow explorers take less risk: a problem of sampling bias in ecological studies (2013, background): “2007), mammals (Tuyttens et al. 1999; Réale et al. 2000; Boon et al. 2008), and birds (Guillette et al.”
Personality affects zebra finch feeding success in a producer–scrounger game (2011, background): “Published activity levels have been negatively related to survival in female red squirrels, Tamiasciurus hudsonicus (Boon et al. 2008).”
