- A review of environmental enrichment for pigs housed in intensive housing systems (2009, background): “The provision of straw bedding has been frequently linked with lower incidences of undesirable pig-directed behaviours including tail-biting (Ruiterkamp, 1987; Schouten, 1987; Lyons et al., 1995; De Jong et al., 1998; Kelly et al., 2000; Guy et al., 2002a; Van de Weerd et al., 2005; Scott et al., 20”
