Cuttlefish (Sepia officinalis: Cephalopoda) hunting behavior and associative learning.

abstract：:Our society is sustained by wide-ranging cooperation. If individuals are sensitive to others' gains and losses as well as the amount of labor, they can ensure future beneficial cooperative interaction. However, it is still an open question whether nonhuman primates are sensitive to others' labor. We asked this questio...
