An understanding of animal behavior and welfare is an important requirement of a wide range of programs of study including biology, zoology, animal welfare, animal behavior, psychology and zoo biology.

This book is intended as a study and revision guide for students following programs of study in which animal behavior and welfare are an important component. It contains 600 multiple-choice questions (and answers) set at three levels - foundation, intermediate and advanced - and grouped into 10 major topic areas:

1. Foundations and history of animal behavior and welfare
2. Basic concepts and mechanisms in behavior
3. Biological basis of behavior
4. Learning, memory and training
5. Territoriality, navigation and migration
6. Animal cognition and communication
7. Behavioral ecology and social behavior
8. Measuring, recording and analysing behavior and welfare
9. Animal exploitation and welfare
10. Animal rights, ethics and law

The book has been produced in a convenient format so that it can be used at any time in any place. It allows the reader to learn and revise the meaning of terms used in the study of animal behavior and welfare, methods of recording behavior and assessing welfare, the physiology of behavior, learning, memory, cognition, behavioral ecology, animal rights and much more. Many of the questions require students to use their knowledge to interpret information provided in the form of graphs, data or photographs.
