Zoo biology course opened interesting opportunities for degree project

LiU student Ioulia is doing research for her master thesis on energy requirements in doplhins in both Kolmården Wildlife Park and Oceanografic de Valencia.
A spirometer is used to measure the respiratory functions of the dolphins. It gives the researchers at Kolmården data used to diagnose health issues and how the lungs perform in a dive. - If we understand their physiological capacity, we can understand better how climate changes will affect their capability to find food, says Andreas Fahlman.

Kolmården hosts students in Zoo biology course

The International Master's Programme in Applied Ethology and Animal Biology was welcomed by Kolmården in the course Zoo biology. Students spent four weeks with the researchers to learn how research on zoo-animals is performed and why.
