It seems humansare not the only animalsthat changetheir behaviourwhen they are being
watched.Captiveprairiedogs- largeand very sociablerodents-'kiss and cuddle'morewhen
they are beingwatchedby zoo visitors,scientistshavefound.

This prairiedog 'greetingkiss' is remarkablysimilarto a human kiss. - (5)
Deboiah Wells, a researcherfrom Queens UniversityBelfast,who also studies the effects of
visitorson captiveanimals,explainedwhy it was importantto understand how different species
respondedto humanobservers,so that zoo enclosurescould be designedwith the animals'
wefare in mind,"lt is possiblethat the prairiedogs,a naturallysocialspecies,are enrichedby
visitorsand seekout theircompany,"she said.
