Abstract

We are pleased to see the concept of affordances being given attention in the context of evolutionary theory. We are, however, surprised that the authors engage so little with existing work on affordances. We highlight some properties of affordances that the authors overlook: affordances are perceivable, are ubiquitous across the animal kingdom, are relative to individuals, and can be learned.
