Question

Calm, frequently handled cattle generally have a larger flight zone than minimally handled wild cattle.

A. True
B. False

Answer 1

Calm, frequently handled cattle generally have a smaller flight zone than minimally handled wild cattle.

Step-by-step explanation:

The statement is false.

Calm, frequently handled cattle generally have a smaller flight zone than minimally handled wild cattle. The flight zone is the distance at which an animal will move away from a potential threat or perceived danger.

Cattle that are accustomed to human interaction and have been handled often are more comfortable with humans and have a smaller flight zone.

An example of this would be a herd of cattle on a ranch that are accustomed to being handled by the ranchers. These cattle would perceive less threat from the ranchers and have a smaller flight zone compared to wild cattle that have minimal human interaction and are more wary of humans.
