Stereotyped behavior and cage size

It was concluded that spatial restriction which does not permit 'normal' locomotor behavior, e.g., running, climbing, etc., results in substitute motor expression which frequently takes the form of repetitive stereotyped movement.

Situation and stimulus effect on stereotyped behaviors of chimpanzees

Stereotyped behaviors are present on many occasions, but observers have noted that they are particularly prevalent when some degree of 'tension' is presumably present. ... The level of stereotyped behaviors was highest in an enclosed cubicle. This effect was apparently...

Social dominance in a herd of Angus, Hereford, and Shorthorn cows

A peak in dominance is reached at the night year of age wherefter growing age contributes to a decline in social rank. Parallel to the age-dependent rise and decline in social rank the animal gain and lose body weight.
