| Konrad Lorenz[(Konrad_Lorenz>Konrad Lorenz[[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Konrad_Lorenz|Wikipedia]])] was an Austrian ethologist and zoologist who is best known for his work on animal behaviour, particularly the study of imprinting in birds. Lorenz's observations and theories had a significant influence on the field of psychology, and he was awarded the Nobel Prize in Physiology or Medicine in 1973 for his contributions to the understanding of animal behaviour. | Konrad Lorenz[(Konrad_Lorenz>Konrad Lorenz[[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Konrad_Lorenz|Wikipedia]])] was an Austrian ethologist and zoologist who is best known for his work on animal behaviour, particularly the study of imprinting in birds.

| One of Lorenz's most famous experiments involved geese, which he observed formed a strong attachment to the first moving object they encountered during a critical period in their development. This attachment, known as filial imprinting, would then serve as a model for the bird's future social and sexual behaviour. | One of Lorenz's most famous experiments involved geese, which he observed formed a strong attachment to the first moving object they encountered during a critical period in their development.
