Learn More About the Science Behind Animal Behavior

This is a CD version of an on-line course housed at forestandrange.org. Since many of us don't have high-speed internet, having this CD makes it a little easier.

Using a '50s era diner as a backdrop and choosing meals as you go, you'll learn:

• why animals eat what they eat
• the real definition of palatability, why things taste good or bad, and why it's important to a livestock producer
• how giving animals a choice of foods increases health and weight gain while reducing your workload
• and just how "old dogs" can learn "new tricks"

No meal would be complete without your "just desserts" where you'll learn tips and techniques to sweeten your bottom line. And with a little "digestion" you'll find out just how much you've absorbed from your meal.
