This chapter contains questions about the different types of learning exhibited by animals, the relationship between learning and memory and the principles of animal training.
An equine case study that analyses the development of long-term equine food aggression towards humans and creates a bespoke behaviour modification plan following the Humane Hierarchy and Least Intrusive Minimally Aversive principles using scientific evidence.
Vertical ground reaction force (GRFz) measurements are the best tool for assessing horses' weight-bearing lameness. However, collection of these data is often impractical for clinical use. This study evaluates GRFz predicted using data from body-mounted IMUs and long short-term memory recurrent...
The proportion of Thoroughbred (TB) horses that commence training and eventually race, is an important industry-level indicator of how successful it is at producing horses suitable for racing. It is also of interest to the wider community and is central to the issue of whether there is overbreeding ...
This is a title only record which contains no abstract.
This case study describes how to reintroduce a kitten to a resident senior cat after the initial introduction did not go well. The resident cat did not accept the kitten and was spending more time outside. When she came into contact with the kitten, she would hiss and growl. A slow reintroduction...
During a water treadmill (WT) exercise, horses change their accelerometric patterns. We aimed to analyze if these changes persist during terrestrial locomotion. Six horses were randomly subjected to 40 min duration WT exercises, without water (WW), at the depth of fetlock (FET), carpus (CAR) and...
In this chapter, and the chapter on learning, some important and fundamental mechanisms that control behaviour are described. What makes the cat perform a particular behaviour at any given moment is examined, namely its motivation and behavioural needs. When the cat has different options, how does...
This chapter comprises a very short introduction to the basic principles of learning. These are the mechanisms that control how the cat learns from its own experience, both as a kitten and as an adult. Indeed, they apply to all animals, including us. It is useful for us to understand how animals...
This chapter defines problem behaviour in cats and presents a summary of approaches to prevent and address these problem behaviour.
