Individuals (n >\;4600) and families (n = 64) have been followed since 1972\; birth s\, deaths and matings are recorded based on monthly resighting data of th ese known individuals. Between 1980 and 1984\, we observed in detail the d evelopment of over 200 individual calves\, aged between birth and five yea rs old. These individuals have been followed over their lifespan\, and inf ormation on their success (or failure) is known. We have also tracked over 900 females from birth to first reproduction and over 200 males during th eir dispersal from their natal units. I will present information on intera ctions\, social dynamics and reproduction over the life course of these kn own individuals\nSpeaker: Phyllis Lee LAST-MODIFIED:20250924T101818Z LOCATION:Bückle St. 5a\, 78467 Konstanz\, Room: Seminar room MPI-AB Bückl estrasse + Online ORGANIZER;CN=Max Planck Institute of Animal Behavior:mailto:rthillaikumar@a b.mpg.de SUMMARY:Institute Seminar by Phyllis Lee: Development and reproduction in A mboseli elephants: a life history approach URL;VALUE=URI:https://www.ab.mpg.de/events/42650/2736 END:VEVENT END:VCALENDAR
