Product Description
Review
"Provides in-depth insight into domesticated livestock...Interesting and helpful."--Small Farm Today
Product Description
Behaviour 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 should receive a formal course in the subject and require a basic textbook. The third edition of this book was originally published in 1990 by Bailliere Tindall, but is now reprinted by CAB International. It provides a comprehensive guide to the behaviour of farm animals and to the objective evaluation of their welfare. While primarily directed at students, it should also be of use to veterinary practitioners, farmers and biologists seeking an introduction to the subject.
