If, like so many others during the pandemic, you acquired a pandemic puppy, attempted to teach your old dog new tricks, or perhaps took on the daunting task of litter training your cat, you may have learned that animal training isn’t all treats and clickers.
In fact, the field of working with nonhuman animals is a complex process with a rich behavior analytic history. Join us as we take an adventure into the world of animal welfare with Dr. Eduardo J. Fernandez.

- The science of behavior has and can be utilized to assist in improving the lives of not just animals in zoos, but also their keepers and handlers.
- Other areas that can benefit from behavior analysis include conservation and enrichment.
- Enrichment is pragmatic and purposeful, should simulate the natural environment and stimulate natural movements. It is not the same things as reinforcement.
