Use of Dominance Theory in Behaviour Modification of Animals
Link To Read More For decades, some traditional animal
training has relied on dominance theory and has assumed that animals
misbehave primarily because they are striving for higher rank. This
idea often leads trainers to believe that force or coercion must be
used to modify these undesirable behaviours. In the last several
decades, our understanding of dominance theory and of the behaviour
of domesticated animals and their wild counterparts has grown
considerably, leading to updated views. To understand how and
whether to apply dominance theory to behaviour in animals, it’s
imperative that one first has a basic understanding of the
principles.
