Digestive Performance Changes in Birds in Social and Solitary Living

Abstract

This review article examines the impact of social structures on the digestive performance of birds. We analyze how collective versus solitary living affects birds’ feeding behavior and digestive health. Case studies indicate that social interactions, whether competitive or cooperative, significantly influence the digestive efficiency of birds. This study also explores the ecological and biological implications of these findings, highlighting their importance in environmental conservation and understanding bird social behavior. Finally, we identify current research gaps and suggest future directions to address them.
