The Role of Stress
This Course is for You
If you live or work with animals it’s important to understand the physiological and mental consequences of stress, and how it impacts animal well-being. Recognising stress, what causes it, and how to alleviate it is the key to creating a healthy environment for our domestic animals. Through understanding evolutionary needs of a species we can minimise stress to keep it in a healthy balance. CPD hours are printed on the certificate. This is also Unit 3 of the APA1 Certificate course
