Research on close encounter experiences has been limited to reports on dolphins, felids, crowned lemurs, giraffes, armadillos, red-tailed hawks and hedgehogs.
“Research so far has been limited to reports on the behaviour and welfare of dolphins involved in encounters [147,148], felids in behind the scenes experiences [149], crowned lemurs [146] and giraffes [150] in visitor feeding programs, as well as one study on armadillos, red-tailed hawks and hedgehogs involved in an education program [151].”

Another study found an increase in play behaviour in dolphins following an interactive swimming program with visitors when these programs were conducted once per day.

“One study on dolphins involved in a ‘swim with a dolphin’ program found that refuge use increased in dolphins during and within 15 min following a session [147], whereas another study found an increase in play behaviour in dolphins following an interactive swimming program with visitors when these programs were conduc…”

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
