Abstract : Using various forms of enrichment, animal care specialists encourage species-specific behaviors and discourage stereotypic behaviors.

Here, we assess the effect of access to multiple habitats, including areas of off guest view, on the welfare of two American black bears (U. americanus) housed at the North Carolina Zoo.
