Housing different animal groups in close-by facilities is common wildlife centers. However, the impact on welfare insufficiently studied literature. In this study, we analyzed behavior of two adjacently housed chimpanzee to investigate how intergroup interactions may affect their and, thus, welfare. We recorded occurrences abnormal and self-directed behaviors, well-known indicators stress chimpanzees. Furthermore, explored social responses said by recording all inter- intragroup affiliative agonistic behaviors. Finally, measured number vigilance that individuals directed towards other chimpanzees as an indicator interest. Generalized Linear Mixed Models (GLMMs) were used assess whether between neighboring might influence taking gender, age, group, participation into account. Our results suggest promoted occurrence behaviors group members. caused exhibit a higher increased members when occurred. Thus, adjacent housing does chimpanzees’ should be continuously monitored assessed promote maximize

While global aquaculture is rapidly expanding, there remains little attention given to the assessment of animal welfare within aquacultural systems. It crucial that concerns are central in development and implementation as if they not prioritized early on, it becomes much more difficult adapt future. To this end, important ensure availability high-quality schemes evaluate animals promote maintain high standards. This paper will first discuss some current certification frameworks, highlighting primary limitations need be addressed, before going on describe recommendations for a best-practice process aquaculture; with hope these considerations can taken board used help improve and, ultimately, have higher level welfare. Any system should assessed according suitable framework order considered adequate contains, thus social license operate.

Abstract The price of fishmeal (FM) has been increasing continuously due to the expansion gap between its stable production and rising demand. Therefore, plant protein sources are widely applied in aquaculture industry accomplish requirement farmed fish species. However, massive number results produced under various experimental conditions appended challenges for comprehensive summarization comparison effects on carnivorous Thus, a systemic review meta‐analysis were conducted compare impacts growth, feed utilization efficiencies, blood lipid, liver health representative Supported by data from 256 articles, our indicated that Atlantic salmon, African catfish, Black seabass, Hybrid striped bass better at utilizing than Grouper Japanese seabass. Cottonseed lupin proteins promising alternatives, while rapeseed showed significant growth suppression these Besides, deep processing methods such as fermentation enzymolysis alleviated undesirable consequences effectively when less half FM was replaced sources. Moreover, optimal discussed each Overall, this article depicts impact patterns major species lays solid foundation further investigation mechanisms improving utilization.

(1) Background: Environmental enrichment (EE) is a management principle aimed at meeting the needs of animals under human care by identifying and providing essential environmental stimuli to contribute integrity their psychological physiological well-being. Studies on EE have been carried out worldwide, but consolidated information how it has used, who used for, evaluated, what gaps still exist in subject scarce scientific literature. This study assessed, employing systematic review, global scenario research into kept over last 17 years, answering above-mentioned questions. (2) Methods: A search for papers was Web Science Scopus databases from January 2005 December 2021, resulting 2002 articles which extracted. (3) Results: Results showed an increase number published EE, especially farms, studies laboratory environments continue be more frequent. Mammals birds are most studied animal groups. Cognitive least utilised researchers. The publications researchers countries southern hemisphere low. (4) Conclusions: Although technique being widely focused certain groups captive mainly northern planet. Therefore, pointed here need filled future studies.

Digital technologies offer new ways to ensure that animals can lead a good life in managed settings. As interactive enrichment and smart environments appear zoos, farms, shelters, kennels vet facilities, it is essential the design of such be guided by clear, scientifically-grounded understandings what need want, successful improving their wellbeing. The field Animal-Computer Interaction proposes this achieved centering as stakeholders technology design, but there remains for robust methods support interdisciplinary teams placing animals' interests at heart projects.

Introduction The breeding of ornamental fish is increasingly widespread across the world. For this reason, assessing welfare in aquariums becoming ever more important. This study wants to evaluate, through minimally invasive analyses, behavioral observations, and an analysis cortisol concentrations water, how absence or presence environmental enrichment (EE) influences guppies ( Poecilia reticulata ). Methods In total, 15 tanks, divided by EE level [without, with low (25%), high (75%) levels EE], were considered. Fish video-recorded analyses carried out. addition, each tank's water evaluated. Results tanks higher EE, behaviors such as wood, flotation, plant feeding courting, which are indicators a good quality life, significantly expressed. Bite behavior was also expressed high-level probably response territoriality animals. only stereotypy behavior, stress index, found be EE. Finally, Discussion light these results, we conclude that showed better statuses. Considering use therefore useful for enabling express their species-specific repertoire improve life.
