“…In G8 and G9, pigs from the Low and High RFI lines were subjected to two tests (human approach and novel object tests) to measure behavioral reactivity to novel, feareliciting stimuli (Colpoys et al, 2014;Colpoys et al, 2015). In G8 and for both tests, barrows from the Low RFI line were observed to have fewer head movements (P ≤ 0.02), defecate less frequently (P ≤ 0.03), freeze in place for shorter amounts of time (P = 0.05), freeze less frequently (P < 0.0001), cross fewer zones (test area was split into 4 zones based on distance from novel object, P < 0.0001), and took longer (48 to 52 seconds) to approach the novel object (P ≤ 0.04) compared to High RFI barrows (Colpoys et al, 2014).…”
