THE FOUR KINDS OF FITNESS:
-
PHYSICAL FITNESS
is more than basic life support. Animals evolved in a complex
environment, and meeting their whole spectrum of needs makes their
life longer and better.
-
MENTAL FITNESS
is as important in captivity as it is in the wild. It promotes
natural socialization within and between species and reduces
stereotyped, neurotic behaviors.
-
EMOTIONAL FITNESS
is the cornerstone of a compassionate, trusting partnership
between man and animal. When we bring life into the world, we owe
it happiness and contentment.
-
MORAL FITNESS
is a clear understanding of rules and expectations by man and
animal that promotes trust, minimizes stress, reduces accidents
and enhances cooperation.
