Animal training, including target training, can be an important part of being a zookeeper and animal care staff. Here, amazing keepers Cassie and Heather demonstrate a training session with the adorable Asian small-clawed otters. Using the tennis ball on a stick, which you may notice the otters holding (adorable🥺), is called targeting. This can help in guiding them to a space where keepers want them to be and is usually the first step in training more complex behaviors, such as scale training.
