metadata.name: dc.description.abstract
metadata.value: Geese form long-term pair bonds due to the constant need for cooperation
  between partners. During spring migration, mates are assumed to divide roles:
  females feed more intensively than males to accumulate nutrient reserves for
  clutch formation and incubation, while males spend more time on alert to protect
  females. However, some behaviours require synchronisation to increase
  reproductive success. We studied whether there were behavioural differences
  between mates in Greater White-fronted geese (Anser albifrons) during feeding
  at a migratory stopover. According to our results, females spent more time
  feeding, and males were more alert while females were feeding. Walking intensity
  was significantly correlated between partners. Preference to follow the
  mate and the manifestation of visual lateralization did not differ between sexes.
  These findings illustrate the division of roles between partners and the synchronization
  of their movements. Such behaviour allows partners to stay close
  to each other and provide support to the mate.
