EDITORIAL We open this new volume with the introduction of two new sections in Animal Behaviour: In Focus and Essays. In Focus gives the editors an opportunity to highlight work that we feel should attract a wider audience beyond the animal behaviour community and the readership of our journal. In each issue, we will select papers that seem likely to capture the imagination of scientists in other disciplines and the public at large. Our hope is that, by presenting studies in a more accessible way, the findings published in Animal Behaviour will attract more positive attention to our field, and the fascination that we, as scientists, feel for the animals we study can be conveyed more effectively to a wider audience. In this issue we have chosen a paper by Ensminger and Crowley on why brotherebrother interactions differ from encounters be- tween unrelated males, and one by Van Dyk and Evans on visual discrimination of familiar and unfamiliar conspe- cifics in Jacky dragons, an Australian lizard. Both of these studies are excellent exemplars of the intriguing issues that animal behaviourists choose to study, and of the novel and imaginative methods used to gain access to these creatures’ worlds. The idea for an Essay section came from Matthew Cobb at Manchester University, whose own Essay on Margaret Bastock will appear in a future issue. Matthew’s idea was that essays could provide animal behaviour researchers with an outlet to present and discuss ideas, opinions and historical perspectives that didn’t quite fit into the standard format of research articles or review papers, but that were nevertheless pertinent to present day issues. In the first contributions to our essay section, the outgoing president of ASAB, Chris Barnard, and the incoming president, Innes Cuthill, present companion essays on the issue of animal welfare and the 3Rs (replacement, reduction and refinement). Both discuss the possible implications of current legislative moves for experimental studies of animal behaviour and, while they share the same overarching concerns, Barnard and Cuthill approach the issue from different perspectives, and with a different emphasis. Both make persuasive and convincing argu- ments and we hope you find these pieces as important and thought provoking as we do. We also hope that they will inspire other authors to present their own views in an essay format. LOUISE BARRETT & MICHAEL D.

We open this new volume with the introduction of twonew sections in Animal Behaviour: In Focus and Essays.

In Focus gives the editors an opportunity to highlightwork that we feel should attract a wider audience beyondthe animal behaviour community and the readership ofour journal. In each issue, we will select papers that seemlikely to capture the imagination of scientists in otherdisciplines and the public at large. Our hope is that, bypresenting studies in a more accessible way, the findingspublished in Animal Behaviour will attract more positiveattention to our field, and the fascination that we, asscientists, feel for the animals we study can be conveyedmore effectively to a wider audience. In this issue we havechosen a paper by Ensminger and Crowley on whybrotherebrother interactions differ from encounters be-tween unrelated males, and one by Van Dyk and Evans onvisual discrimination of familiar and unfamiliar conspe-cifics in Jacky dragons, an Australian lizard. Both of thesestudies are excellent exemplars of the intriguing issuesthat animal behaviourists choose to study, and of thenovel and imaginative methods used to gain access tothese creatures’ worlds.

The idea for an Essay section came from Matthew Cobbat Manchester University, whose own Essay on Margaret

Bastock will appear in a future issue. Matthew’s idea wasthat essays could provide animal behaviour researcherswith an outlet to present and discuss ideas, opinions andhistorical perspectives that didn’t quite fit into thestandard format of research articles or review papers, butthat were nevertheless pertinent to present day issues. Inthe first contributions to our essay section, the outgoingpresident of ASAB, Chris Barnard, and the incomingpresident, Innes Cuthill, present companion essays onthe issue of animal welfare and the 3Rs (replacement,reduction and refinement). Both discuss the possibleimplications of current legislative moves for experimentalstudies of animal behaviour and, while they share thesame overarching concerns, Barnard and Cuthill approachthe issue from different perspectives, and with a differentemphasis. Both make persuasive and convincing argu-ments and we hope you find these pieces as importantand thought provoking as we do. We also hope that theywill inspire other authors to present their own views in anessay format.
