The Effects of Animal Interactions on Zookeeper Attachment and Possible Implications for Animal Welfare

Creator:: Koktas, Cemal
Abstract:: Human-animal relationships, emerging as an aftermath of human-animal interactions, have been increasingly investigated in recent years. It is possible to see the results of the effects of these relationships on both human and animal welfare. This study predicted that caretakers with hands-on contact with their zoo animals would have significantly...

People Who Are Attached to Their Companion Animals See Emotions in Animals

Creator:: Rutter, Lindsey P.
Abstract:: Emotional intelligence is the ability of an individual to recognize, utilize, and regulate emotions, which are likely relevant to the perception of emotions in humans as well as in animals. The perception of emotions in companion animals enables an individual to improve the intensity of the bond between a human...

Emergent Properties of Animal Social Networks: Five Stories in Five Systems

Creator:: Devan-Song, E. Anne
Abstract:: Animals aggregate and interact in nonuniform and nonrandom patterns, which lead to group level characteristics that have important evolutionary and ecological consequences. Network analysis provides a useful conceptual framework for linking animal interactions at all scales from dyads to communities, to populations and ecosystems. Despite exciting theoretical and applied advances...

Ecophylogenetic Characterization of the Gut Microbiome of At-risk Companion and Food Animals

Creator:: Kirchoff, Nicole S.
Abstract:: Agricultural and companion animals are integral to our way of life as they provide us with nourishment, financial resources, transportation, and companionship. However, pets, managed animals in the agricultural industry, as well as wild populations of food animals are all subject to health and mortality risks. The gut microbiome is...

Wildfire Severity Has a Minimal Influence on Pollen Diversity Used by Developing Mason Bees (Osmia lignaria) in Mixed Conifer Forest

Creator:: Bell, Nicole C. S.
Abstract:: Native bees are critically important organisms that support biodiversity and crop production via their pollination services. Wildfires in temperate conifer forests can increase bee abundance and flowering plant density due to increased light exposure, but little information is available regarding how wildfire severity influences provisioning to bee offspring, which is...

Intraspecific and Interspecific attachment between cohabitant dogs and their owners

Creator:: Sipple, Nicole M.
Abstract:: Domesticated dogs can form attachment bonds with their owners and use them as a secure base to receive comfort during distress and confidence to explore novel environments. Owners often adopt multiple dog in hopes they will have ameliorative effects during periods of absence from their owner. The purpose of this...

Effects of Diversity and Spatial Separation of Pastures on Forage Production, Milk Yields, N Partitioning and Methane Emissions

Creator:: Carmona Flores, Lorena F.
Abstract:: Diverse pastures containing multiple species help extend the grazing season and reduce the reliance on one or two species to meet all the nutritional requirements of livestock. Planting pasture species in spatially separated adjacent strips can increase the proportion of pasture plants with certain agronomic and nutritional attributes such as...

Drowning in the noise : an examination of noise pollution’s effect on wild birds through field recording and musical composition

Creator:: Kruger-Moore, Liana
Abstract:: This project uses field recordings to examine the levels of noise pollution present in both rural and urban areas by creating an artistic translation of these soundscapes, representative of how wild birds experience different environments. The field recordings capture not only what is present in a given soundscape, but what...

The NRF2-controlled Antioxidant Response, Alternative Forages, and Selenium supplementation for Improving Ruminant Productivity and Health

Creator:: Ford, Hunter
Abstract:: Oxidative dysfunction can affect dairy animals during periods of heightened stress, particularly during the transition from pregnancy to lactation and during diseases, such as intramammary infection (IMI), and can contribute to increased inflammation, immune dysfunction, and cell death. As such, methods for ameliorating oxidative stress and restoring redox regulation may...

Evaluating pollinator populations and lamb productivity from simple, diverse, and legume pastures in a dual use pasture system

Creator:: Caudillo, Mia C.
Abstract:: Dual use pasture systems, sometimes referred to as dual purpose pasture systems, take advantage of the land being used to maximize multiple outputs from a single area. Developing a system to support both production of grazing livestock as well as pollinator health is of increasing importance in pasture-based farming systems....
