    Comportamento de fêmeas de elefantes asiáticos (Elephas maximus) e africanos (Loxodonta africana) em cativeiro: uma abordagem comparativa e sua importância para o bem-estar
    (2024-02-07) Cabral, Isabella Ribeiro de Melo; Schiel, Nicola; http://lattes.cnpq.br/5314455811830714; http://lattes.cnpq.br/7299148914808419
    For animals with complex lifestyles, large size, or a more developed cognitive system, such as elephants, promoting well-being in artificial environments becomes challenging. The study of animal behavior emerges as an essential tool to ensure the well-being of these species, providing management strategies tailored to their specific needs. In our research, we focused on the behavioral repertoire of captive female elephants, aiming to comparatively evaluate the behavioral repertoire of Asian (Elephas maximus) and African (Loxodonta africana) female elephants in these situations. To do this, we observed the behavior of both species through online cameras available at two zoos, each species in one zoo – Prague Zoo (Czech Republic) and Reid Park Zoo (USA) – with rigorous inclusion criteria to standardize the comparison, including: having female elephants, online cameras in the outdoor enclosures of the females, enclosures of similar sizes, similarity in reaction to the size of the elephant group, and group composition. We observed 9 behavioral categories, analyzing 6 (foraging, moving, stationary, self-maintenance, affiliative social, and agonistic social) over 13 days, with 50 hours of observation for each zoo. The Ad libitum method and the 5-minute scan sampling method were used for the elaboration of the ethogram and data collection, respectively. To verify if there were differences in the behavioral repertoire between the two species, we conducted the Mann-Whitney U test. Surprisingly, although the literature indicates differences in some behaviors between African and Asian species, such as foraging, stereotypy, and self-maintenance, we found no statistically significant differences between them in the analyzed categories, suggesting similar behaviors for both species in captivity. Our research suggests that, under the specific conditions of our participating zoos, Asian and African female elephants exhibited similar behaviors. It is essential to emphasize the importance of broader comparative studies, with comprehensive inclusion criteria, to obtain a holistic understanding of the specific behaviors of each species. This knowledge is crucial for the development of more effective care and management practices and strategies in zoo environments. The preservation of these magnificent species requires a continuous commitment to research and the development of adaptive strategies to ensure their well-being in zoo environments.

    A importância do enriquecimento ambiental para primatas em zoológicos
    (2022-05-26) Silva, Mayara de Freitas; Schiel, Nicola; Fuente Castellón, María Fernanda de la; http://lattes.cnpq.br/9523589239670783; http://lattes.cnpq.br/5314455811830714; http://lattes.cnpq.br/8631505182213359
    The use of environmental enrichment seeks to offer the animal in captivity conditions that stimulate its natural behavior, through techniques that modify its environment. Based on this, this research aimed to carry out a systematic review on the use of environmental enrichment as a tool to improve the well-being of primates in captivity, describing the types of enrichment, which are more effective and which groups present positive results from the use. of environmental enrichment. A total of 75 articles were evaluated between the years 1988 and 2021. Data were collected in two databases: Web of Science and Scopus, and the following information was extracted: article title, year of publication, place where it was carried out (institution and country), species, genus and family of the primate that received environmental enrichment, type of environmental enrichment applied, subtype of enrichment, the way in which environmental enrichment was employed, effect of environmental enrichment and how it was evaluated (behaviorally and/or physiologically). The results of this research show that in 63.76% of the times when environmental enrichment was applied, the effects were positive. The most used type of enrichment was social, but the one that most achieved positive effects was food enrichment. The most used method to assess these effects was through behavioral measures. Callitrichidae was the family that, proportionally, had the most positive effects on enrichment. And in relation to gender, Eulemur obtained more positive effects. From the results we can conclude that using environmental enrichment actually improves the well-being of primates in captivity, allowing them to perform natural behaviors and improve their well-being. Producing this type of research makes it possible to gather works on the use of enrichment in different zoos, with different families and genders, and to show the most used forms of enrichment, the successes (positive effects) and failures (negative effects). And in this way, build a database to help zoos apply environmental enrichment in their primates.

    A Antrozoologia como instrumento veterinário nas terapias assistidas por animais
    (2019-12-13) Silva, Rosângela Lúcia da; Silva, Jean Carlos Ramos da; Silva, Márcio André da; http://lattes.cnpq.br/6636676066431983; http://lattes.cnpq.br/8705354960174177
    This work described is reference “Estágio Supervisionado Obrigatório” (ESO), as a way to complement the theoretical-practical teaching, aiming to provide a professional guidance and experience in the area of interest. The ESO was held from August 12 to October 23, 2019, at the “Zoológico do Parque Estadual Dois Irmãos” (PEDI), located in Recife, Pernambuco. In this institution, activities were carried out to monitor clinical and surgical procedures, preventive medicine, wildlife and exotic wildlife management, and Environmental Education actions. This work contains the series in the area of medical and surgical wildlife clinic, the activities developed, the experiences lived and observed in the behavior of visitors. The experience of the zoo internship represented a significant opportunity to encompass and aggregate knowledge in the field of wild medicine as well as sparking interest in a literature review entitled “Anthrozoology as a veterinary instrument in animal assisted therapies”.

    Condicionamento operante como ferramenta de promoção de bem estar de animais em cativeiro
    (2022-05-31) Costa, Nathaly Rayana Nunes da; Porto Neto, Fernando de Figueiredo; http://lattes.cnpq.br/1475750525654086; http://lattes.cnpq.br/0612169779839408
    The learning process is long, but necessary, whether in humans or animals. In this case, operant conditioning brings the possibility of handling with greater well-being, greater comfort for animals and handlers. As a form of enrichment, conditioning is still not widespread and used in zoos.It should be seen as an alternative to reduce stress and interventions that can be performed without the need for animal sedation, such as a simple examination to detect possible skin injuries, for example.The animal conditioning process must be done in stages, knowing and identifying the natural behaviors of individuals and respecting them. Determining goals and commands to be used, which must be useful, functional and that serve for various types of interventions.The handlers must be together with the trainers, so that there is a science of the commands, the way they must be performed, use or not of tools that can assist in these commands, such as clicker or target.With the insertion of the command, the learning and the fixation of it, the tool shows how animal welfare and respect for the five freedoms guarantees a comfortable and long life in captivity for animals.
