This will be a critical examination of what choice is and isn’t; what is aversive; and how to assess if something is, or is not, aversive to an individual animal.

Part 2:Using a case study approach, we will examine behavior modification practices using the Least Intrusive, Minimally Aversive (LIMA) ethical standard.
