British researchers find that levels of play fighting in young pigs did not differ between the socialized and control groups
Research into pig behaviour carried out at Queen’s University in Belfast, Northern Ireland, has come out with some surprising findings.
The research team at the Institute for Global Food Security (IGFS) at the university described the results as “intriguing” and “unpredicted.”
It also found gender differences in the social-play behaviour of young pigs, with links to aggression later in life.
