All of our animals are trained using choice-based training methods. We follow the guidelines set forth by the International Association of Avian Trainers and Educators (IAATE.org). You may have heard the terminology “Operant Conditioning” or “Positive Reinforcement” or even “Clicker” Training. Many times, these terms will be used interchangeably to describe a more modern approach to animal training. See our Blog post Operant Conditioning vs. Positive Reinforcement Training for more detail on these terms.
