| description | <p id="p1">The search for the quality of life of animals in captivity has been carried out in laboratories and animal facility in Brazil and around the world. Most of them today use different practices daily, highlighting the environmental enrichment that promotes animal welfare. This practice is of great importance and can happen in a physical, sensory, cognitive, social, and food way, adapted for mice for more reliable results in research, since the animals start to behave in a more similar way to the natural way. The use of animal models such as mice is of great value to scientific knowledge that is continually expanding, proving the importance of using environmental enrichment that tends to promote a more pleasant environment for laboratory animals in various institutions across the country.</p> |
