3. Sociala beteenden och rangordning mellan renkalvar i hägn (Rangifer tarandus tarandus)
Kandidat-uppsats, SLU/Dept. of Animal Nutrition and ManagementSammanfattning : Sociala strukturer och rangordning mellan hjortdjur är fördelaktigt för att minska konkurrens inom en flock vid måttligt begränsade resurser.

Master-uppsats, SLU/Dept. of Animal Environment and HealthSammanfattning : Behaviour at feeding and performance of pigs can be influenced by the design of the feeding area.
