Lack of evidence for a consistent differential impact of tail and tunnel handling on markers of welfare in laboratory mice
Abstract Different handling methods for laboratory mice have been intensely debated in light of refining animal husbandry. Several studies claim that tail handling is aversive, while tunnel handling seems to have a lesser impact on animal welfare. However, most of these studies investigated the effe...
