Scientific publications and ethograms related to available species.

Which species are available in the program?

The protocol used in the EBEA approach is based on the 5 Domains Model and the Welfare Quality® project approach, transposed to wildlife species, in order to tailor the animal welfare assessment protocol to the specific needs of different species. Thus, the responses provided will differ depending on whether it is a cheetah, a giraffe or a lion. However, the questions are factual, descriptive and accompanied by images and videos for llustrative purposes to facilitate ease of use.

Monitoring of scientific publications
The Akongo team carries out scientific monitoring, compiles and analyses relevant scientific publications for the different species in the program.
Available questionnaires
Species-specific questionnaires, based on scientific publications, are available for each species.
Adapted ethograms
We provide ethograms tailored to each species, based on the latest scientific research.
Video ethograms
Video ethograms are available to help ethologists and animal care teams better understand and discuss behaviors.
