“…However, this seems difficult to do in model systems used in personality studies, which are usually long-lived vertebrate species with long inter-generational times (see e.g., Gosling & John, 1999;Gosling, 2001), such as chimpanzees, Pan troglodytes (reviewed in Gosling, 2001), bighorn sheep, Ovis canadensis (e.g., Réale, Gallant, Leblanc, & Festa-Bianchet, 2000), great tits, Parus major (reviewed in Groothuis & Carere, 2005) or zebra finches, Taeniopygia guttata (e.g., Schuett & Dall, 2009). Surprisingly, little attention has been paid so far to invertebrates in personality research (but see Sih & Watters, 2005;Briffa, Rundle, & Fryer, 2008;Gyuris, Fero, Tartally, & Berta, 2010;Sinn, Moltschaniwskyj, Wapstra, & Dall, 2010), despite the obvious advantages they offer as model organisms.…”
