Play behaviour in nonhuman animals and the animal welfare issue (2009, background): “…axis (hypothalamus-pituitary-interrenal in fish) are usually activated (Moberg 1985; Barton and Iwama 1991; Chrousos and Gold 1992; Broom and Johnson 1993; Bonga 1997; Moberg and Mench 2000; Barton 2002) resulting in increased levels of cathecolamines and corticosteroids, respectively.”

Environmental enrichment as a strategy for mitigating stereotypies in zoo animals: a literature review and meta-analysis.
