Dr. Nikolaas (Niko) Tinbergen, 81, a Dutch-born British zoologist who was a pioneer in the field of ethology and who was a cowinner of the 1973 Nobel Prize for medicine and physiology, died Dec. 21 at his home in Oxford, England, after a stroke.

He gained prominence in the late 1930s as a founder of ethology, the branch of zoology that studies animal behavior. He was awarded the Nobel, along with fellow ethologists Karl von Frisch and Konrad Lorenz, for work in promoting the controversial theory, which is the core of ethology, that behavior is controlled through instinct and environment.
