Activity 1: Animal Welfare and Ethics Debate - Should Zoos exist? Should we be caging animals for our entertainment? Do they really contribute to conservation? Do they serve another purpose? Go to: https://padlet.com/ehuddle/should_zoos_exist Type your reasons for Yes and No
Some things to consider What do zoos do with all the animals they over breed? What do they do if an animal escapes? Can captive bred animals survive release into the wild? Do they teach us respect for animals?
Activity 2: Practical Animal Husbandry Animal Husbandry includes the preparation of accommodation to meet animal welfare needs. This includes creating boredom busting toys and feeders. Normally during induction you would be making animal enrichment feeders for the guinea pigs, degus and rabbits and then observing the animals use them. Instead you are going to research enrichment feeders for some of our other animals Goats, Sheep, Chickens, Ducks and Tortoises. We will make these using your ideas when we start the course in September https://padlet.com/ehuddle/enrichment_ideas Post your enrichment ideas here
Activity 3: Animal Behaviour We will watch a compilation of zoo animals carrying out behaviours. Describe and explain the abnormal behaviours you have observed. What advice would you offer the zoo to reduce these behaviours? Behaviour compilation animals https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Jhmv8Ya5jZE Zoochosis abnormal behaviours seen in zoo Stereotyped movements (or stereotypy) is a term used to describe physical movements that are both aimless and repetitive. https://padlet.com/ehuddle/abnormal_animal_behaviour Type your ideas here
