- W2920199375 abstract "The experiments were designed to investigate two major areas of the human-animal bond which were the bond between laboratory workers and experimental animals, and the effects of a broken bond.The laboratory worker-experimental animal bond included an investigation of the behaviour of laboratory rabbits living in single cages and group pens and their reactions to the approach and handling by a familiar and unfamiliar person. It also involved observing the behaviour of a colony of laboratory cats and their reactions to a familiar and unfamiliar person.A study of dog attacks on people in Brisbane, Australia and on postal delivery officers in Queensland and a survey documenting the perceptions and actions of people when a pet died were two aspects of a broken human-animal bond that were studied.Locomotory behaviour accounted for 19% of penned rabbit behaviours and 23.2% of caged rabbit behaviours. Maintenance behaviours were more commonly observed in caged rabbits (44.5% of observed behaviours) than in penned rabbits (25.3%). The reverse was true for comfort behaviours (23% and 40.6% respectively). Marking and investigatory behaviours were observed more often in penned rabbits (12.6%) than caged rabbits (3%). Agonistic behaviours occurred only in penned rabbits (2.5% of observations) while stereotypic behaviours were only observed in caged rabbits (6.3%). Resting and grooming were observed more often in the middle of the day (10:00 - 12:00h). Significantly (Pl 0.01) more scratching, head shaking, sneezing, stretching and yawning (comfort behaviours) were observed in penned rabbits than in caged rabbits.The rabbits in both housing systems showed a reduction in fearfulness towards the handlers over the experimental period (5 days per handler). Repetition of the handling trial (3 times a day, 10 minutes apart) again showed definite reductions in the fearfulness of the rabbits in both pens and cages. This suggests that they can adapt quickly to a positive interaction with humans.Maintenance behaviours in laboratory cats were the most commonly observed behaviours (36% of observations). Comfort and locomotory behaviours were also often observed (30% and 24.5% respectively) and agonistic behaviours were rarely observed (1%). Running, walking, resting and sitting occurred most often on the shelves of the cage.The cats made more direct contacts with the unfamiliar person than the familiar person. Significantly (Pl 0.01) more attention behaviours were observed on the first day of the human-cat study with either person than on the second and third days.Based on the responses of 406 participants to the survey on dog bites in Brisbane and surrounding districts, 42% were bitten by a dog known to them and 42.4% of attacks occurred in the street. Cattle Dogs, German Shepherds and Bull Terriers were the most commonly cited breeds of attacking dogs. The biting dog was described as medium in size (46% of cases) and male (73%). Seven reasons were given for attacks; unprovoked (33%), unintentionally provoked (22%), intentionally provoked (3.5%), predatory attacksn(20%), defending a resource (15.3%) fear or pain related (6.4%), or the dog was ordered to attack (1 case). Responsible pet ownership was suggested as a solution to the problem by 53% of respondents.Children, presented to three major Brisbane hospitals with dog bite wounds, were mostly bitten on the face and head region. The majority of patients were bitten in the afternoon (12.00h to 18.00h) and most occurred on the weekend with more on Sunday. About one third of casualty cases occurred at the home of the victim and involved the household dog.n n" @default.
