TL;DR: Data from earlier research demonstrate that HRV is a promising approach for evaluating stress and emotional states in animals, and has the potential to contribute much to the understanding and assessment of the underlying neurophysiological processes of stress responses and different welfare states in farm animals.
Journal ArticleDOI
Stress, behaviour and reproductive performance in female cattle and pigs
TL;DR: The aim of the present review is to summarise the current knowledge on the stress concept and its implications on behaviour and reproductive performance in cows and female pigs as phenomena reported in laboratory animals are unable to explain all effects encountered in domesticated farm animals.
Journal ArticleDOI
Relationship between behaviour and adrenocortical response pattern in domestic pigs
Eberhard von Borell,Jan Ladewig +1 more
TL;DR: The results support the concept that adrenocortical function is positively correlated with locomotor behaviour and vocalization score in an open field and that differences in adrenal function are consistent within individuals.
Journal ArticleDOI
Farm animal cognition-linking behavior, welfare and ethics
Christian Nawroth,Jan Langbein,Marjorie Coulon,Vivian Gabor,Susann Oesterwind,Susann Oesterwind,Judith Benz-Schwarzburg,Eberhard von Borell +7 more
TL;DR: The importance of gaining a better understanding of how livestock species interact with their physical and social environments is emphasized, as this information can improve housing and management conditions and can be used to evaluate the use and treatment of animals during production.
Journal ArticleDOI
Juvenile domestic pigs (Sus scrofa domestica) use human-given cues in an object choice task
TL;DR: It is concluded that domestic pigs, even at a very young age, are skilful in utilizing various human-given cues in an object choice task—raising the question whether pigs only used stimulus/local enhancement and associative learning processes or whether they were able to comprehend the communicative nature of at least some of these cues.
