Abstract
Pri proučavanju obrazaca ponašanja laboratorijskih životinja, uključujući habituaciju kao jednostavan oblik učenja, često se koriste testovi istraživanja ponašanja. Svrha obogaćivanja okoliša životinja u zatočeništvu jest podići kvalitetu života na višu razinu povećanjem interakcije s okolinom. U slučaju održavanja gušterica u zatočeništvu dokazano je da vrlo važnu ulogu ima kemosenzorno obogaćivanje. Za provedbu ovog istraživanja, ulovljeno je 20 ženki i 20 mužjaka odraslih jedinki zidne gušterice (Podarcis muralis). Dvotjedni tretman kemosenzornog obogaćivanja uključivao je prikupljanje mirisa jedinki pomoću destiliranom vodom namočenih filter papira koji su se postavljali u skloništa za gušterice. Mirisi nepoznate gušterice su postavljani u kutove terarija tretirane skupine, dok su se kontrolnoj skupini postavljali filter papiri bez mirisa. U drugom tjednu tretmana sve jedinke podvrgnute su testu otvorenog polja u kojem je snimano istraživačko ponašanje. Promatrane varijable, ukupna količina kretanja i učestalost palucanja jezikom, analizirane su korištenjem računalnog programa EthoVision XT 15. Rezultati potvrđuju bržu habituaciju tretiranih gušterica u odnosu na kontrolnu skupinu. Utvrđena je tendencija postizanja uniformnijeg odgovora tretiranih jedinki. Smatram kako je vrlo važno laboratorijskim istraživanjima doprinijeti novim spoznajama vezanim uz obogaćivanje okoliša gmazova i drugih slabije istraživanih skupina organizama te mogućnostima njihove aktivne primjene.
Abstract (english)
While studying behavior in laboratory animals, including habituation as a simple form of learning, behavioral tests are often used. The purpose of environmental enrichment is to improve the quality of life in captive animals by increasing interaction with surroundings. In the case of keeping lizards in captivity, chemosensory enrichment plays very important role. For implementation of this research, 20 female and 20 male adult common wall lizards (Podarcis muralis) were caught. The two-week chemosensory enrichment treatment included individuals’ odor collection by using distilled water-soaked filter papers placed in lizard shelters. Odors of unknown lizards were placed in corners of the terrarium of experimental group, while odorless filter papers were placed in control group. In the second week of treatment all individuals underwent an open field test in which exploratory behavior was recorded. Observed variables, total amount of movement and frequency of tongue flicking were analyzed using the EthoVision XT 15 software. The results confirm that treated lizards habituated faster compared to the control group. A tendency to achieve more uniform response of the treated individuals was determined. I believe it is very important to contribute to new insights through laboratory research related to environmental enrichment of reptiles and other less researched groups of organisms and the possibilities of their active application.
