After realising the success of working to change undesirable behaviour without the use of force, fear or gadgets and knowing that the work of Monty Roberts achieves the same with horses, Jan recognised that it should be possible to use the same principle on other species that come into contact with human beings..
To Jan's delight, she met with carers at Auckland Zoo (New Zealand) who have studied both her and Monty's work and have adapted the procedure with many species in their care, whether it be an Elephant, Sea Lion, Red Panda or Cheetah. This non-confrontational method is the basis of building a truly wonderful and trusting relationship.
