Ethology is the scientific and objective study of animal behavior, usually with a focus on behaviour under natural conditions, and viewing behavior as an evolutionarily adaptive trait (Wikipedia); Nikolaas Tinbergen ‘s famous quote is that it consists in : “interviewing the animal in its own language”; this section also relates to animal psychology !!
