Farm Animal Behaviour and Welfare (CABI Publishing)
Editorial Reviews
Book Description
Behavior has always been recognized as an important indicator of health and welfare in farm animals. Until recently, however, the curricula of agriculture and veterinary students have paid little attention to these issues. This situation has now changed and most students will receive a formal
course in the subject and require a basic textbook. This book fulfills the need for such a comprehensive textbook. The third edition was originally published in 1990 by Bailliere Tindall, but is now reprinted because of the demand expressed by teachers and students. It provides a comprehensive guide
to the behavior of farm animals and to the objective evaluation of their welfare. While primarily directed at students, it will also be valuable for veterinary practitioners, farmers and biologists seeking an introduction to the subject.
