Finally, there were no significant differences across the three handling groups in latencies to complete the chute test or for the amount of time spent pulling on the halter. A Cochran's Q analysis of the presence or absence of vocalizations during halter-restraint revealed no significant differences be- tween groups or across time. There was insufficient variation in the number of vocalizations made during the shearing test, with only one vocalization made during the re-test from a control sheep.
