The integration of animal behavior research into veterinary science has numerous practical applications. For instance, behavioral assessments are now a crucial component of veterinary evaluations, enabling veterinarians to identify behavioral problems early on and develop targeted treatment plans (Lindsay, 2009). Furthermore, advances in animal behavior have informed the development of enrichment programs for animals in captivity, promoting their welfare and reducing stress (Wemelsfelder, 2005).
