Domestic Animal Behaviour For Veterinarians And Animal Scientists - Mechanisms , Ecology, E Volution

Animal behaviour is the scientific study of everything animals do, whether the animals are single-celled organisms, invertebrates, fish, amphibians, reptiles, birds, or mammals. It involves investigating the relationship of animals to their physical environment as well as to other organisms, and includes such top- ics as how animals find and defend resources, avoid predators, choose mates and repro- duce, and care for their young. This book ex- plores domestic animal behaviour in detail.
