A long term behavioural study was undertaken on laboratory-reared naked mole-rats. The main objective of the study was to provide a detailed qualitative and quantitative description of the behavioural and morphological development of naked mole-rats from birth through to adulthood. This study laid an empirical foundation for the subsequent testing of hypotheses pertaining to within and between colony conflict as well as for a study on the existence of a rare dispersal phenotype within colonies. 2015-05-13T14:24:01Z 2015-05-13T14:24:01Z 1996 Doctoral Thesis Doctoral PhD http://hdl.handle.net/11427/12801 eng application/pdf Department of Biological Sciences Faculty of Science University of Cape Town |
