  Assuming the alien spoke English, I would say: “I study birds in noisy towns to find out how they can hear their songs and if people need to quieten down”

  I would say ‘I am looking at how elephants (assuming they know elephants!) in zoos choose their friends’
- Ines Goncalves answered on 9 Mar 2017:
  
  I would say: I look at how stressful it is to have enemies. Be nice to me!

  Hi Alien, I’m interested in how personality affects how animals cope with stress, especially when they’re in pain at the vets. We want to know if they respond and behave differently depending on whether they’re neurotic and extrovert. It’s really like what we see in humans (but if you’re an alien you might not know about them either…)

  I am interested in the exciting sex lives of the fruit fly and chickens and the fascinating behaviour of the secretive clouded leopard.
