Behaviorální projevy žiraf v zoologických zahradách
Rožnovský, Petr
The aim of the diploma thesis was to evaluate the daily activities of giraffes kept in zoos during individual seasons, to determine differences in the life manifestations of giraffes kept in two zoos, differentiation in the behaviour of giraffe herds depending on the presence of a male, the proportion of giraffes staying indoors and in outdoor enclosures and rumination. 12 activities were evaluated during the seven-hour observation. During the years 2020 to 2022, 30 ethological monitoring were carried out, spread over individual seasons. The re-sults of the ethological study show that giraffes devoted the most time (23%) to food intake. Chewing, nibbling, observing the surroundings, licking objects and walking were also fre-quent activities. Giraffes kept in the Zoo Zlín nibbled, licked objects, and chewed more often. In the Zoo Dvůr Králové, there was more observation of the surroundings, feeding and browsing. Contact with other individuals of the herd was also a frequent activity. The pres-ence of a male influenced the behaviour preferences of the giraffes. It was observed that most often giraffes chew a bite 45-49 times, while the variance of the range of the number of chews varied from 23 to 79.

Vlivy působící na behaviorální projevy krav plemene highland na pastvě ve vybraném chovu
Pálková, Michaela
This bachelor thesis deals with the effects that affect the behaviour of highland cows on pasture. Observations were made on an organic farm in Lípa u Zlína, which is situated in Zlín region in the area od Lípa nad Dřevnicí, in summer and winter 2015. The observed behaviour of cattle was: standing, physical aktivity, food and water intake and lying focused on laterality of individuals. By this monitoring, evaluation and subsequent graphical statistical methods was found a slight effect of the season on the symptoms above, the mahor diference was between standing and lying. On averadge, the animals spent most of their time by food intake, lying, standing less by physical activity and water intake.

Vliv ročního období na behaviorální projevy králíka domácího ve vybraném chovu
Matějková, Jana
The aim of bachelor thesis was to evaluate behavioral manifestations of domestic rabbit in selected breeding depending on season. The subject of ethological research was to compare behavioral manifestations (feeding; defecation and urination; walking; relaxation; sitting on its hind legs; comfort behaviour) of chosen breeds of rabbits (alaska, pearl) in particular seasons (spring, summer, autumn, winter). The beginning of observation was always at 10 a.m. and in 15 minutes intervals continued until 1 p.m. (total 13 records per day). Simultaneously was measured outdoor temperature (°C) and temperature inside of open outhouse (°C). There were found out by observation differences between behavioral manifestations of rabbits in different seasons. In summer, rabbits strongly preferred relaxation (91,9 %), whereas the other behavioral manifestations were in inhibition. Compare to that, relaxing consisted 52,8 % and other behavioral manifestations were more pronounced. The influence of breed of rabbit had not perceptible effect on behavioral manifestations. The frequency of behavioral manifestations of both breeds during the year was almost identical.
