Researchers use these 24-hour recordings to measure the percentage of time spent in the "SH poolside" zone versus the water itself. Researchers use these 24-hour recordings to measure the
The video file is part of a larger behavioral dataset (likely "SH" for ) aimed at determining how Pekin ducks interact with different water depths. Commercial ducks require water for thermoregulation and plumage maintenance, but the optimal depth for welfare is a subject of ongoing ethological research. 2. Behavioral Methodology & Pen Mapping indicating social facilitation. 1.
The tendency of the group (often four ducks per pen) to use the "SH poolside" area simultaneously, indicating social facilitation.
