Table 2 The effects of proactivity, body weight and sex on the six foraging variables in Experiment 1 (between-patch distance = 2 m): total feeding time (TFT), total food intake (TFI), frequency of patch shifts (FPS), mean speed of inter-patch movement (MSM), mean residence time during the first (MRF) and last half of the feeding trial (MRL)
From: Food patch use of Japanese quail (Coturnix japonica) varies with personality traits
