Lecture 2

Thanks again for wonderful participation. I'm very glad that you enjoyed our optimum foraging activities and I hope that these have aided your understanding of optimal behaivour, and important concepts such as the concept of diminishing returns. Economic theory explains animal behaivour well, because animals make decisions with their own best interests in mind. Do not forget that successful individuals are those that best spread their genes!
