The field of behavioral ecology includes a variety of disciplines, including the study of how organisms find food, how they move about the environment, and how they communicate with each other. This field is also interested in studying the evolution of social behaviors and social systems.

It explores different conservation ethics among figures such as Aldo Leopold, Gifford Pinchot, and John Muir, alongside issues of environmental justice and the challenges faced by indigenous groups.

Key adaptations include camouflage (e.g., peppered moths), masquerade (e.g., twig caterpillars), and chemical defenses (e.g., skunks). Aposematic coloration warns predators of unpalatable species, as seen in monarch larvae. It also covers mimicry types: Batesian and Müllerian. Additionally, the importance of group behavior in enhancing survival through cooperation and vigilance is highlighted.
