Varied cages result in more aggression in male CFLP mice (1990)

McGregor, P. K., Ayling, S. J.

Abstract

Male CFLP mice were quicker to show signs of aggression in both large wooden cages and standard plastic holding cages to which objects such as bricks and extra sources of food and water had been added. .. Attempts to provide more 'varied and natural' cages can result in aggression occurring more quickly in males.
