Handling logs

Handlings list

Available on Juvenile and above. Log a handling session from the animal's detail page under the Handlings tab.

Handling logs help you track socialization progress, monitor stress indicators, and keep staff accountable for routine enrichment.

Viewing history

The animal's Timeline tab interleaves handling sessions with feedings, sheds, and weight logs so you get a full picture of activity over time.

QR-code quick-log

If QR codes are enabled on your plan, you can scan an animal's label to open a quick-log form pre-filled with that animal. Tap Handling and submit in seconds — no searching required.

Tips

  • Use the notes field to flag animals that showed defensive behaviour so staff know what to expect.
  • For facilities with multiple keepers, the handler field provides an audit trail for who last worked with each animal.
