behavior consultation

Whether you are opening a new aviary or experiencing difficulties managing a current space, it may be beneficial to reach out for consultative services. 
For many years, I have enjoyed finding innovative solutions to multi-factorial problems like those that often exist in free-flight aviaries. I offer assistance to organizations delving into new builds by helping teams tackle management decisions such as species selection, exhibit features or planning day to day husbandry.
​
Common problems addressed through consultative services include moving animals to/from exhibit easily, removing ill animals, the inability to retrieve offspring, and interpreting social behavior to prevent premature deaths. Consultative services may also include  behavior and collection planning. 

Free-flighted aviaries, particularly those with a variety of species can improve the exhibit experience by immersing guests into dynamic environments. At times, these compelling exhibits may also increase management challenges.
