The Five Freedoms of Animal Welfare: 4. Freedom to Express Normal Behavior

Freedom to Express Normal Behavior This freedom means providing sufficient space, proper facilities, and the company of the animal's own kind. "This is one of my personal favorites," states Kevin. "Actually, the majority of the team enjoys this freedom." New Standard studies what the animals would want to do, their behaviors, and their natural tendencies. Then we ask the question, 'How do we make sure we get them to that as close as possible?' New Standard believes that allowing the animal to do what comes naturally to them and working to build around those needs will result in better production and better well-being for the animal. Sufficient Space The key importance is giving different square foot allotments to the animals depending on their size. By focusing on their needs, New Standard can design spaces that accommodate for resting, roaming, and interaction. Proper Facilities This is done by proper air quality control and the use of the Fusion Barn Control. Company of Animals Own Kind Animals will run around in what is called a "sounder," which is like making a family unit. Even in a large group of animals, they will make smaller groups of their own "sounders". They will be comfortable with the group of their own kind, but they will congregate and often follow each other around the barn areas with smaller groups. sound·er1 /ˈsoundər/ Nautical noun a herd of wild swine. "he spied a sounder of pigs trotting through the garden.
