▼a Contests are essential parts of an animal's life history, as they dictate access to critical resources like mates, food, or territory. Studying how animals efficiently assess competitive ability to resolve contests is a central goal of research |

▼a Behavioral theory predicts that animals may use visual or other displays to communicate reliable information on ability, resolving contests without the use of potentially costlier combat, such as biting, grasping, or striking with weapons. In Ch |

▼a Studies of assessment help show what information competitors use to make decisions during contests and can reveal the role specific behaviors play. In Chapter 3, I show that N. bredini use mutual assessment during both size-matched and non size- |

▼a Finally, in Chapter 4, I test how the energetic cost of delivering sparring strikes scales with body size. I find that larger competitors used proportionally more energy when striking, that this positive scaling of energy resulted in constant sc |

▼a Overall, this thesis shows that the use of deadly weapons in contests should not be assumed as dangerous combat |
