Goats (Capra hircus) from different selection lines differ in their behavioural flexibility

2021-10-16

Abstract excerpt

<p>Given that domestication provided animals with more stable environmental conditions, artificial selection by humans has likely affected animals’ ability to learn novel contingencies and their ability to adapt to changing environments. In addition, the selection for specific traits in domestic animals might have an additional impact on subjects’ behavioural flexibility, but also their general learning performanc...
