    Master-uppsats, SLU/Dept. of Wildlife, Fish and Environmental Studies

    Författare :Pieter Otte; [2022]
    Nyckelord :climate change; snow cover; seasonal colour coat; crypsis; mismatch; camera trap; survival analysis;

    Sammanfattning : Climate change is expected to decrease winter severity at high latitudes, resulting in reduced days of snow cover. Several mammalian and avian species in the northern hemisphere express a seasonal colour coat (SCC) making them white in winter periods and brown or dark in summer. LÄS MER

  4. 18. How does hatchery stress affect the development of play behavior?

    Master-uppsats, Linköpings universitet/Institutionen för fysik, kemi och biologi

    Nyckelord :Animal behavior; Animal welfare; Gallus domesticus; Hatchery stress; Play behavior;

    Sammanfattning : Play is a behavior mainly observed in young individuals that can differ greatly between species in both function and appearance.

Commercial hatcheries expose chicks to several stressors that can affect both behavior and welfare. LÄS MER

  5. 19. The impact of production system on animal welfare of cattle prior to slaughter : from loading on-farm to stunning at the slaughterhouse

    Master-uppsats, SLU/Dept. of Animal Environment and Health

    Nyckelord :Animal Behaviour; Human-animal interaction; Protocol; Direct observations; Loading; Transport; Unloading; Driving race; Conventional; KRAV-certified;

    Sammanfattning : The slaughter process, from loading the animals on the transport on-farm until stunning at the slaughterhouse, makes our production animals exposed to stressful situations and unknown environments. Animal welfare prior to slaughter has been questioned for several years and science behind how animal welfare is affected is lacking. LÄS MER
