Changes in behavioural response of Mediterranean seabass (Dicentrarchus labrax L.) under different feeding distributions [PDF]
Captive-induced behavioural deviations may involve many aspects of fish behaviour such as swimming activity and enhancement of individual aggressiveness.

Taste agents as modulators of the feeding behaviour of grazing yaks in alpine meadows
Feeding behaviour plays a significant role in promoting good animal health and welfare. It is also reflective of the quality and quantity of available feed.

Grasses and the resource availability hypothesis: the importance of silica-based defences [PDF]
The resource availability hypothesis (RAH) predicts that allocation of resources to anti-herbivore defences differs between species according to their growth rate.

Multi-neuronal refractory period adapts centrally generated behaviour to reward [PDF]
Oscillating neuronal circuits, known as central pattern generators (CPGs), are responsible for generating rhythmic behaviours such as walking, breathing and chewing.

The influence of feeding behaviour on growth performance, carcass and meat characteristics of growing pigs [PDF]
This study investigated the effect of the feeding behaviour on growth performance, and car- cass and meat characteristics of 96 barrows fed ad libitum or restrictively with high or low amino acids (AA) diets according to a 2 7 2 factorial design.

Validation of automatic monitoring of feeding behaviours in sheep and goats.
Monitoring the feeding and ruminating behaviour of ruminants can be used to assess their health and welfare. The MSR-jaw movement recording system (JAM-R) can automatically record the jaw movements of ruminants.

Courtship feeding, food sharing, or tolerated food theft among paired Red-crested Pochards (Netta rufina)? [PDF]
Red-crested Pochards (Netta rufina) have been observed feeding on plants brought by their mates to the water surface, and this behaviour has been traditionally considered as courtship feeding.

A prospective study on the persistence of infant crying, sleeping and feeding problems and preschool behaviour [PDF]
Aim: To determine the persistence of regulatory problems (RP), i.e. excessive crying (>3 months of age), feeding and sleeping difficulties from infancy to preschool age, and to evaluate whether RP at 5 months are predictive of preschool adaptive ...
