Why is it important for judges to evaluate the presentation of cavies?

Evaluating the presentation of cavies is essential for ensuring a consistent assessment of cavy quality. Judges need to be able to view and assess each animal under the same conditions and standards. By focusing on presentation, judges can identify and compare the attributes of each cavy, such as body shape, coat quality, and overall health. This consistency helps uphold the integrity of the judging process, ensuring that similar standards are applied across all participants and breeds. Such an approach not only reinforces fairness in competition but also promotes high standards in breeding and care practices among exhibitors.
