Partial Mechanical Restraint video files of juvenile Japanese quail (first half)

Partial Mechanical Restraint was performed on juvenile Japanese quail (40 days of age). Test consisted in restricting the movement of the animal between two walls of a melamine box of 20 x 10 cm (height per width, respectively) with the characteristic that the front wall was made of glass, and the back wall was adjustable to induce immobility in such a way that the animal cannot open the wings, but can move the head and legs. The experimenters retreated out of the birds' sight, and the test was during 5 minutes recorded with a video camera place in front of the box. All the birds were tested in 31 batches of 4 animals each, where the birds had no visual or physical contact between each other. File name includes the ID number of the four birds tested.
