Abstract

Simple training techniques can be used to facililitate the conduct of procedures, such as removing the animals from the cages. Animals housed in this manner are less noisy, show less aggression to staff, are easier to handle, habituate to study procedures ........ study outcomes have been positively impacted by changing the type of housing used.
