Posted by: Paradon at Fri Jul 21 22:09:03 2006 [ Email Message ] [ Show All Posts by Paradon ] Oh, no I didn't come up with this approach myself. I was reading Mellisa Kaplin care sheet for green iguana because I happen to have one myself, and basically that's how she tames her iguana. Her method is call behavior modification. She said they do the same with elephants and other animals in the zoo. When you see them telling the elephant to lifts up the legs, it's not a trick; they teach them that so they can inspect their feet properly. The same with dogs and iguana. You want to be the alpha and need to show them that the only time they get what they want is to listen to you. Except, ofcourse, monitor aren't that social compared to the green iguana. I was just following her method for behavior modification since she's an accomplish animal rescuer and rehabilatator. | ||
