Association for the Study of Animal Behaviour (ASAB)
The Association for the Study of Animal Behaviour (ASAB) supports research and education about animal behaviour. It provides support to teachers in schools and colleges in teaching animal behaviour, from primary schools to sixth forms. In addition they provide general advice on behavioural methods, statistics, ethics in animal behaviour teaching and rough guides to animals commonly used in behaviour work. The resources encourage students to observe animal behaviour and integrate this into topics taught in schools. They help to raise awareness of animal welfare and increase understanding of the similarities between humans and other animals.
