Take a Class at the Zoo!
Topics include how to recognize individual animals, producing accurate descriptions of behavior; recognizing various behaviors and organizing them into an ethogram; and methods of collecting quantitative data. The emphasis is on practical firsthand applications of such techniques to behavioral problems and studies. Besides lectures and demonstrations, participants conduct a study project on selected species at the Los Angeles Zoo. |
