Rat related Assignments and College work

In 2006 I graduated from  studying a degree in Applied animal behavior and Training, some of my work was (by choice) rat related and so I thought it would be nice to include this work on my website for the general interest of everyone. I am by no means saying that my work is totally correct, because if it was I would be getting 100% but there maybe some point/areas covered in it that are interesting and informative.

Please choose from the titles below!

Enjoy- Em.

 

• Behavioral development in Rats (Rattus norvegicus) (Year 1).

• Training plan for Training a rat to conduct four tasks from one cue (Year 3).  Please note the rat used in this was changed from Kiara to Bramble.

• Training evaluation (of the above) as well as evaluation of training of mine detection rats (Year 3).

• Abstract of Dissertation - Investigating Ultrasound Vocalisations in Rats (Rattus norvegicus): Twenty two kilohertz calls and associated behaviours as a measure of restraint welfare (Year 3).

 

N.B- Please note a lot of hard work has gone into producing these assignments and copying them for your own use is forbidden, as is perjury for use on you own assignment...at the end of the day you are only cheating yourself!
