“…This datum is shared by only two previous studies. Observers of a group of six female tigers recorded percentages of pacing of 0.47% of all scans when housed at night in a group and of 0.61% when housed at night alone (Miller et al, 2013), and the three tigers involved in the study by Lyons and colleagues (1997) did not pace at all. Conversely, the majority of studies in this field reported higher values: between 4.67 and 23.91% in 15 animals hosted in nine European zoos (De Rouck et al, 2005), 16.43% in a review by Clubb and Mason (2007), nearly 60% in two tigers observed before a feeding enrichment experiment (Bashaw et al, 2003), and an average of 23.02 ± 14.27% recorded in 19 captive tigers in Nandakanan Zoological Park (India) (Mohapatra et al, 2014).…”
