in accordance with.... behavioural needs/ requirements
Explanation:
Kathinka's suggestion is perfectly valid of course - this is another option which I found on related websites:

see e.g.:

keeping of wild species as companion animals which would require housing according to their physiological and behavioural needs
http://www.ufaw.org.uk/news99.htm

macaques were being singly housed in cages which were inadequate for the animals' behavioural needs
http://www.ebra.org/bulletin/july01_96.html

Social and Behavioural Requirements of Experimental Animals," 70-73. Chap. ...
www.api4animals.org/593.htm

should have their species-specific behavioural and physical needs met

and many more
