Abstract
Animals acquire skills and knowledge from other animals, and fish are no exception. There is now strong experimental evidence that many species of fish exhibit social learning and traditional behaviours. Here, we review the literature pertaining to social learning in fish, focusing on (i) antipredator behaviour. (ii) migration and orientation, (iii) foraging, (iv) mate choice and (v) eavesdropping.
