One of the key areas where animal behavior and veterinary science intersect is in the understanding and management of stress and anxiety in animals. Stress can significantly impact an animal's health, immune function, and behavior, making it a critical factor to consider in veterinary practice. Behavioral studies have shown that animals exhibit a range of stress responses, including avoidance behaviors, aggression, and changes in appetite or sleep patterns.
