Behaviour can provide useful information about an animal's physical and emotional condition. Changes in eating, movement, social interaction, activity, posture, or other behaviours may indicate that an animal's needs are not being adequately met.

Yes. Behavioural and welfare requirements vary between species and individual animals. Factors such as natural habitat, social structure, diet, activity patterns, and communication methods should be considered when designing appropriate care.

Animal enrichment involves providing suitable opportunities, environments, activities, or resources that encourage natural behaviours and support physical and mental wellbeing. Appropriate enrichment should be safe and relevant to the species and individual animal.

Signs can vary by species and individual. Possible indicators include changes in appetite, hiding, aggression, repetitive behaviour, altered posture, unusual vocalisation, reduced activity, or changes in normal social behaviour. Sudden changes should be investigated appropriately.
