At Auckland Zoo, five domains of animal welfare feed into everything we do, ensuring our animals have the best quality of life.
In our 4-part ‘Science-based Animal Care’ video series, we show how our keepers utilise the domains of Nutrition, Environment, Health, Behaviour, which make up the fifth domain, Mental State.
Join Carnivore Keeper Nick, to discover how an animal’s physiology determines the way they are fed, the design of their environment, and how training is vital for stress-free health checks.
