1. A method of monitoring the movement of animals within an area comprising the steps of:collecting positional data of each animal under observation; processing said positional data to generate movement pattern data representing the movement patterns of said animals; and analyzing said movement pattern data to determine at least one physical condition of said animals, wherein during said analyzing step said movement pattern data is compared with reference movement pattern data stored in a database that represents typical movement patterns of animals exhibiting said at least one physical condition.
