“…Animal models do have limitations, however. The fact that animals cannot “talk” about their feelings poses difficulties for researchers seeking to map an animal analog of craving onto the human experience.…”

“…While there has been extensive work on how individual organisms dynamically modify their behavior to respond appropriately to changing environmental conditions (and how this is encoded in the brain), we know remarkably little about the corresponding aspects of collective information processing in animal groups. For example, many groups appear to show increased “sensitivity” in the presence of perceived threat, as evidenced by the increased frequency and magnitude of repeated cascading waves of behavioral change often observed in fish schools and bird flocks under such circumstances. …”

“…Progress in this area requires valid animal models. Current models are based either on manipulating the environment to which rodents are exposed (during the developmental period or adulthood) or biological underpinnings (i.e. gene deletion or overexpression of candidate genes, targeted lesions of brain areas, optogenetic control of specific neuronal populations, etc.). …”

“…Commonly used techniques measure blood flow, glucose utilization, protein synthesis, and the activity of the enzyme cytochrome oxidase throughout the animal’s brain. Using these approaches, researchers have investigated alcohol’s effects both in animals that receive alcohol for the first time and in animals with a history of alcohol exposure. …”

“…Here, we aimed to assess exposures to potential sources of zoonotic disease and investigate the demographics, attitudes, and behavior of individuals with sustained occupational animal contact in Vietnam. We recruited 581 animal workers (animal-raising farmers, slaughterers, animal health workers, and rat traders) and their families in southern and central Vietnam into a cohort. …”
