Understanding animal behaviour, including the ability to recognize and interpret signals as well as understand how animals learn, is imperative for anyone who works with animals. This chapter discusses the origins of behaviour in terms of gene–environment interaction and the Three Rules of Life. The fundamental basics of how humans and other animals learn are introduced, and common pitfalls in communication and training are considered. The chapter ends with a series of tables highlighting behavioural commonalities across a range of species, to help readers approach novel species with confidence.
