Konrad Lorenz était un zoologiste autrichien et l'un des fondateurs de l'éthologie moderne. Il a étudié de manière approfondie le comportement instinctif des animaux, en se concentrant particulièrement sur les oies cendrées et les choucas. Lorenz est devenu largement connu pour ses descriptions du phénomène d'empreinte (imprinting), par lequel les jeunes oiseaux établissent un lien instinctif avec le premier objet en mouvement qu'ils rencontrent. Son travail collaboratif avec Nikolaas Tinbergen a été essentiel pour établir l'éthologie comme une sous-discipline distincte de la biologie.
