“…In recent studies of elephant welfare in captivity, the emphasis has turned to the measurement of rest and sleep behaviors (Kalirathinam, Elangkovan, Kawi, & Cabana, 2019; Schiffmann et al, 2018a; Schiffmann, Hård, Hjelm, & Clauss, 2020; Schiffmann, Knibbs, Clauss, Merrington, & Beasley, 2018b; Walsh, 2017; Williams, Bremner‐Harrison, Harvey, Evison, & Yon, 2015) as it could be a valuable noninvasive measure of potential stressors. Sleep is an important aspect of life, and deprivation can lead to acute and chronic health issues for animals (Bryant, Trinder, & Curtis, 2004; Hillman et al, 2018; Walsh, Binding, & Holmes, 2019) and indicate signs of psychological and physical stress (Abou‐Ismail, Burman, Nicol, & Mendl, 2007).…”
