Abstract
⺠Triumph displays are postconflict signals performed by winners following fights. ⺠We evaluated the impact of triumph calls on social eavesdroppers in little blue penguins. ⺠Male penguins displayed higher heart rates in response to a winner's call. ⺠They were also less likely to vocally threaten winners than losers. ⺠By advertising victories, winners may establish a “reputation” for winning fights.
