Felines vs. Canines

CSEF · 2014 Mammalian Biology

Amanda F. Bryant- Dunmire · Ventura High School, Ventura, Ventura County

Overview

Objectives/Goals In this experiment, animals will use their paws for many things but, some scientist don't know what paw the animals favor. My hypothesis is that cats will be more left-pawed and dogs right. Methods/Materials Materials: 20 cats and dogs, toys( feathers and balls), data table and treats. Results My results came out to be that cats were left-pawed and dogs right-pawed. My hypothesis was incorrect Conclusions/Discussion In conclusion, I wanted to see if cats and dogs have a paw preference. Overall for cats I found out that they were mostly left pawed and dogs right. They switched. If I had more time I would spend more time on the project and on the animals.
