    Study Notes

    Crisis Plan: Isolation and Quarantine

    • Isolation is a health practice used to separate sick animals with communicable diseases from healthy animals.
    • The purpose of isolation is to restrict the movement of sick animals to prevent the spread of certain diseases.
    • Quarantine is a health practice used to separate and restrict the movement of healthy animals that may have been exposed to a communicable disease.
    • The purpose of quarantine is to monitor animals for signs of illness and prevent the spread of communicable diseases.
    • Quarantine can be used as a period of detention prior to introducing new animals into a country, facility, or enclosure to prevent the introduction of diseases.

    Isolation and Quarantine

    • Isolation and quarantine are health practices used to stop or limit the spread of disease.
    • Isolation separates sick animals with a communicable disease from healthy ones.
    • Isolation restricts the movement of sick animals to stop the spread of certain diseases.

    Quarantine

    • Quarantine separates and restricts the movement of well animals that may have been exposed to a communicable disease.
    • Quarantine is used to monitor if the animals become ill.
    • Quarantine can also help limit the spread of communicable disease.
    • Quarantine is used as a period of detention prior to introducing new animals into a country, facility, or enclosure.

    Traffic Light System

    • The "traffic light" system categorizes animals into three groups:

    RED: Clinically Affected

    • Animals that are clinically affected, i.e., sick.

    YELLOW: In-Contacts

    • Animals that are "in-contacts", i.e., have been exposed to a communicable disease.

    GREEN: Well

    • Animals that are well and have not had contact with others, typically new arrivals.

    Crisis Plan

    • The crisis plan utilizes a "traffic light" system to categorize animals into three groups:
      • RED: Clinically affected animals (sick)
      • YELLOW: "In-contacts" (animals that have had contact with infected animals)
      • GREEN: Well animals that have just arrived and have not had contact with others

    Isolation and Quarantine

    • Any animal that becomes ill or is believed to be infectious should be immediately removed from the group setting (isolation) until evaluated by a veterinarian
    • In isolation, physical and procedural measures should be used to minimize the risk of transmission to other animals and reduce contamination of the environment
    • Susceptible animals with known exposure to a potentially contagious animal should be excluded from the group setting (quarantine) for a pre-determined period
    • The quarantine period is determined by the time it takes for the disease to manifest following exposure or as otherwise determined by a veterinarian

    Ongoing Monitoring

    • All animals at the facility should be continuously monitored for signs of illness by staff regardless of perceived risk

    Crisis Plan

    • The crisis plan utilizes a "traffic light" system to categorize animals into three groups:
      • RED: Clinically affected animals (sick)

    Ongoing Monitoring

    • All animals at the facility should be continuously monitored for signs of illness by staff regardless of perceived risk

    Enrichment Goals

    • Presence of a wide variety of normal behavior, including exploration, play, affiliation, and foraging
    • Understanding the animal's behavioral biology is necessary

    Abnormal Behavior Reduction

    • Absence or reduction of abnormal behavior, such as coprophagy, regurgitation, hair-pulling, self-injury, or stereotyped movements
    • Reduction of abnormal behavior leads to a decrease in stress and boredom

    Environmental Control

    • Animals gain some control over their environment through enrichment
    • Lack of control can lead to 'learned helplessness'

    Positive Outcomes

    • Positive interaction with novel stimuli may increase confidence
    • Enrichment may be beneficial for nervous animals, such as puppies
    • Increase in adoption rates through 'Train to Adopt' programs

    Conflict Avoidance

    • Enrichment should be carried out carefully to avoid conflict
    • Example: avoid competitive enrichment tasks that may create social tensions (Bloomstrand et al., 1986)
