Recent research focuses mainly on the environmental constraints of homing and the specific role of each cue in the orientation system, whereas the study of the neural mechanisms processing and evaluating directional information has been neglected.

The evidence available for many mammals is that the smallest area in which they spend, say, 90% of their time is one or two orders of magnitude smaller than the surrounding area where they spend the remaining 10%.

On the contrary, Loricata (crocodiles, alligators and gavials) inhabit mostly swamps, lakes and rivers, and only one species is definitely linked to coastal areas.
