In tropical and subtropical regions, the conditions in which domestic animals are raised span the entire spectrum from the tight confinement of intensive breeding to the virtual freedom of extensive systems. In Comportement, conduite et bien-être animal, the authors demonstrate that whatever the situation, knowing and understanding the behavior of animals allows them to maximize both their well-being and their productivity. This knowledge is particularly valuable when the breeder intends to introduce, within a traditional system, new management techniques or genetically improved animals. 186 p.
