Bubbles and Behavior: The Effect of Enrichment on Dogs
Manage episode 327824909 series 3323533
Enrichment is popular for most mammals, whether we’re considering dogs in pet homes or dolphins in a zoo, partly because we recognize how intelligent these animals are. Reptiles have historically been neglected in research since they are not obviously intelligent, and what literature exists is conflicting. In this week’s episode Jade digs into one of her special interests, the intelligence of reptiles and the effect of enrichment on them by reviewing a few studies.
