The study of animal play has grown popular in recent years and its occurrence in diverse taxa documented. Two recent papers describe detailed experimental research on play in Drosophila and the effects of domestication on play in red junglefowl and domestic chickens, furthering the need to understand the role of play in behavioral evolution throughout the animal kingdom.
近年来,对动物玩耍的研究越来越受欢迎,并且其在不同分类群中的出现情况也有记载。最近的两篇论文描述了关于果蝇玩耍的详细实验研究,以及驯化对红原鸡和家鸡玩耍的影响,这进一步凸显了理解玩耍在整个动物界行为进化中所起作用的必要性。
