摘要: Abstract The behavioural responses of groups 10 lambs were examined for 90 min following a range commonly used husbandry procedures. treatment were, control handling only (control); ear tagging (ET); tail docking by hot iron (HD); rubber rings (RRT); castration (RRC); and (RRTRRC); HD plus Mulesing ET (HDMET); RRC (HDRRCMET). produced no discernible changes in or postural indicators showed small non-significant increases active pain behaviours abnormal postures. All treatments involving the use tight (RRT, RRC, RRTRRC, HDRRCMET) resulted significant posture behaviour displays. HDMET few but significantly increased time spent An integrated score based upon incidence postures ranked response order =
