The Fish Ethology* Database "FishEthoBase" is designed to collect, systematise and make available (open access) all ethological knowledge to be found on fish in the wild and in captivity, with a focus on farmed species in order to help improve fish welfare in aquaculture and avoid practices that harm fish.
* ethology = behaviour research
The FishEthoBase is an initiative of a small association, based on the shoulders of some dedicated scientists and endowed with contributions of a few institutions which help us to proceed from species to species. Our prospects are defined in a business plan (2019-2024) with funds currently covering our costs till the end of 2019. We are looking forward with the boldness of the poor eager for knowledge.
We appreciate comments and own contributions from scientists and practitioners. We warmly welcome also any donation supporting our future work.
