Description
Contemporary, thought-provoking yet utterly practical, this book provides an introductory text covering the use and misuse of behaviour tests applied to animals.

By including illustrative examples from a variety of species, the book inspires animal scientists to think about what a given behavioral test can be used for and how the results can be interpreted.

This text includes:
  • Dos and don'ts of running behavior tests and interpreting the results
  • Many clear, simple illustrations which make the information readily accessible, down to earth, practical advice yet a thorough, evidence-based approach
  • Information on behavior tests for a whole range of species from companion, farm, zoo, laboratory and wild animals
  • Succinct yet comprehensive text, designed to be read cover to cover and stimulate further reading


This book is an essential item in the researcher's toolkit when embarking on and devising any animal behavior test and is valuable to students, established researchers, teachers and practitioners of applied ethology, animal welfare science, and veterinary science.
