Enrichment can be difficult as it is not something that would naturally be seen by the animal yet it can be a valuable tool in places like zoos to promote natural behaviours within the animal which is just as important.]]> 2020-12-02 09:35:45 UTC https://padlet.com/sophie_dockray/tcf9si4253irx0hv/wish/979091965 https://padlet.com/sophie_dockray/tcf9si4253irx0hv/wish/979091980 2020-12-02 09:35:45 UTC https://padlet.com/sophie_dockray/tcf9si4253irx0hv/wish/979091980 https://padlet.com/sophie_dockray/tcf9si4253irx0hv/wish/979092089 It can be very difficult to truly replicate an animals natural environment, as many animals in captivity in the Uk come from warmer or colder climates which are very different to the Uk temperatures
