SUMMARY
New publication reviewing environmental enrichment
EURCAW Ruminants & Equines and Care4Dairy partners from INRAE have continued the exploration of environmental enrichment and published a more in-depth review. The review focuses on reframing environmental enrichment to ensure animals are actively engaged in the enrichment and continue to learn and interact with their environment. The interaction with enrichment also impacts an animal’s resilience in novel situations. To read the full article, see: https://doi.org/10.1016/j.animal.2024.101251
