为了寻找食物而长途跋涉的动物需要配备导航系统,这些导航系统能够在整个出境旅程中跟踪旅行的距离和方向,以便它们可以迅速回家,而不会迷路。当环境中没有地标时,归位的挑战尤其严峻。沙漠蚂蚁和蜜蜂能够迎接这一挑战,尽管它们的大脑很小,计算能力有限。本文回顾了这些生物归巢能力的一些过程和机制,它们是动物界中最被理解的导航者之一。
Animals that travel large distances in search of food need to be equipped with navigation systems that are capable of keeping track of the distance and direction of travel throughout their outbound journey, so that they may return home expeditiously and without losing their way. The challenge of homing is especially acute when the environment is devoid of landmarks. Desert ants and honeybees are able to meet this challenge, despite their minuscule brains and restricted computational capacity. This article reviews some of the processes and mechanisms that underlie the homing abilities of these creatures, which are among the best-understood navigators in the animal kingdom.
