- A review of environmental enrichment for pigs housed in intensive housing systems (2009, methodology): “Pigs from the enriched alternative-housing-system designed by Beattie et al. (2000a) exhibited higher average and maximum heart rates when they were moved to a novel-object test-arena than pigs from control pens.”
- Animal Domestication and Behavior (2003, background): “Beattie et al. (2000) compared the behavior, growth and meat quality Use of Space 155”
- Effects of species-relevant environmental enrichment on the behaviour and productivity of finishing pigs (2006, background): “, 1991; Beattie et al., 2001). Stubbe et al. (1999) did not observe tail biting in pigs with intact tails in pens with the straw dispenser.”
- Effects of early contact between non-littermate piglets and of the complexity of farrowing conditions on social behaviour and weight gain (2009, background): “This indicates that non-social enrichment of farrowing systems such as straw bedding and additional space leads to a faster adaptation and a lower stress response of piglets towards the new environment (Beattie et al., 2000; Hillmann et al., 2003; Chaloupková et al., 2007b) or to less explorative be”
- Effects of environmental enrichment and loose housing of lactating sows on piglet behaviour before and after weaning (2011, background): “Similarly, providing enrichment after weaning can potentially make the weaning process easier for piglets as it can provide distraction and has the potential to blunt the cortisol response to weaning (Beattie et al., 2000; Dudink et al., 2006; Fraser et al., 1991; Moncek et al., 2004).”
