Causal evidence for the adaptive benefits of social foraging in the wild

Snijders et al. present a field-based experimental study of the effects of group size and sex composition on social foraging in Trinidadian guppies. Their results indicate that sex differences in sociality do not necessarily imply an unequal ability to benefit from social presence.
