چکیده انگلیسی
We tested multiple hypotheses on the occurrence of stereotypic behaviour in leopards (Panthera pardus), snow leopards (Uncia uncia) and tigers (Panthera tigris) at Leipzig Zoo. Stereotypies in all three species occurred exclusively as pacing. Stereotypic pacing was observed in 79% of the 14 animals and occupied on average 19% of the time spent active. Stereotypies were unaffected by species, age, sex and social housing, respectively. Animals showed significantly more stereotypic pacing before feeding. Stereotypic pacing was performed significantly more often in locations from which food arrival could be first viewed. Older animals tended to show more stereotypic pacing after feeding. Animals that generally exhibited more stereotypic behaviour paced significantly more often after feeding. Our results suggest that stereotypies may represent an exaggerated response of food reward. Furthermore, stereotypies may become emancipated from their original motivation over the course of an individual's development. Stereotypies thus could possibly be remedied by increasing the feeding (i.e. reward) frequency, if applied from an animal's early age.
