For the last few months, I have been working on training Chuck to do a behavior we call a Banana. Interesting name, yes, but pretty fitting since it describes a natural resting behavior where seals lay on their side and lift their head and hind end up slightly, creating a shape that resembles a banana. With this behavior though, I wanted Chuck's final body position to be a little bit more exaggerated. What do you think?
