The Ethology and Ethology is a scientific study of animal behaviour. The course curriculum is focused on the history of the methods in ethology and on the assessment from the evolutional point of view on its fixed and learned behaviour patterns. Further the ethology deals with principles and ways of the learning and mating, reproductive and parental care behaviour and intraspecific and interspecific communications. The teaching aids: specialized literature, internet links, power-point, video programs: Evaluation, examination,seminar work, colloquial assessssment
