1. Solitary V/S
Social
Organisation

2.  Solitary animals live alone or at most in pairs. They often come together in the
breeding season to mate.
 Solitary living in mammals is assumed to develop due to offspring dispersing
when reaching adulthood
 Either because they themselves develop the urge to leave, or because the mother
rejects them.
 Mostly carnivores come under solitary animals.

3.  Tiger live and hunt alone .
 Only come together for mating.
 They are territorial.

5. • These animals interact highly with other animals, usually of their own species
• Sociality refers to the extent of the organization of their social behavior.
• Social attraction is the reason why a human being called a social animal.
• There potential benefits include:
1. Protection from predator
2. Enhanced feeding
3. Reproductive opportunities

6. EXAMPLE: HONEY BEE
Honey Bee
• Live together in groups of 20 000-80 000 individuals
• There are three castes(i.e.there is division of labour):
Queen: fertile female
Lays eggs that hatch into larvae-
larvae are fed a special diet, royal jelly (more protein),
they will develop into queens
Produce pheromones.
Drones: fertile males
Workers: sterile females
Most bees are workers
infertile females

7. EXPERIMENT ON ANT
COLONY
• Basically it is seen more the body weight of specie more will be its energy usage
• But this not true in case of social animals like ant, since there energy usage
increases with colony size.
• In larger groups ants becomes energetically more efficient.
• Larger colony have more inactive ants.
• There energy usage is lower than working ones
• Inactive ant will activate at the time of crisis.
