- Abstract
In this article the author discusses the root cause of the problem of having a satisfactory integration of ecology and behavioral ecology. It indicates how evolutionary disciplines undervalue the active role of organisms in creating their niches. It notes that the conceptual revision that will likely integrate ecology and behavioral ecology is the change in thinking needed to integrated ecology. It cites construction revision that brings the active constructive role of organisms in shaping local ecologies and animal behavior to the foreground.
