Individual boldness is life stage-dependent and linked to dispersal in a hermaphrodite land snail
TL;DR: Investigation of relationships between dispersal, life stage and boldness in an invertebrate with between- and within-life stages variation in dispersal tendency finds boldness is a personality trait in Cornu aspersum.

TL;DR: This study provides unprecedented insights into the generality of the positive resource dependency of dispersal as well as a robust experimental test of current theory predicting that predator-induced dispersal is modulated by prey and predator space use.
Individual boldness is life stage-dependent and linked to dispersal in a hermaphrodite land snail
TL;DR: Investigation of relationships between dispersal, life stage and boldness in an invertebrate with between- and within-life stages variation in dispersal tendency finds boldness is a personality trait in Cornu aspersum.
Dispersers are more likely to follow mucus trails in the land snail Cornu aspersum
TL;DR: It is pointed that ignoring the potential for collective dispersal provided by trail-following may hinder the understanding of the demographic and genetic consequences of dispersal.

Dispersers are more likely to follow mucus trails in the land snail Cornu aspersum
TL;DR: Land gastropods, which have a high cost of movement and obligatorily leave information potentially exploitable by conspecifics during movement (through mucus trails), are a good model to investigate links between dispersal costs and information use.
