Living on the edge: Survival secrets from badass birds- House sparrows are badass birds in that they have come to occupy nearly every continent on this planet. Not only does this introduced species survive upon their arrival to a new place, but they thrive and continue to expand their range post-introduction. What is their secret to survival at the range-edge? I investigate the role of epigenetic mechanisms as mediators of variation in behavior, immunology, and stress responses among house sparrows at the range-edge and range-core.
