American Zoos During the Depression
Author: Jesse C. Donahue
Publisher: McFarland
ISBN: 0786461861
Category : History
Languages : en
Pages : 237
Book Description
American zoos flourished during the Great Depression, thanks to federal programs that enabled local governments to build new zoological parks, complete finished ones, and remodel outdated facilities. This historical text examines community leaders' successful advocacy for zoo construction in the context of poverty and widespread suffering, arguing that they provided employment, stimulated tourism, and democratized leisure. Of particular interest is the rise of the zoo professional, which paved the way for science and conservation agendas. The text explores the New Deal's profound impact on zoos and animal welfare and the legacy of its programs in zoos today.

An Odyssey with Animals
Author: Adrian R Morrison
Publisher: Oxford University Press, USA
ISBN: 0195374444
Category : Medical
Languages : en
Pages : 287
Book Description
An Odyssey with Animals is the culmination of a veterinarian and scientist's years spent negotiating the divide between animal welfare and biomedical research. Drawing on the disciplines of philosophy, history, ethics, biology, and animal behavior, Morrison crafts a multi-faceted argument in favor of using animals in research. The result is a thought-provoking, intelligent and fair-minded discussion of an incredibly charged subject--of the past and present of animals' relationships with humans, and how and why we should be able to use them as we do.

Animal Harm
Author: Dr Angus Nurse
Publisher: Ashgate Publishing, Ltd.
ISBN: 1409472590
Category : Law
Languages : en
Pages : 466
Book Description
Why do people harm, injure, torture and kill animals? This book evaluates the reasons why these crimes are committed and outlines the characteristics of the animal offender. It considers ethical and value judgements made about animals and the tacit acknowledgement and justification of unacceptable criminal behaviour towards the harming of animals made by offenders. Situating animal abuse, wildlife crime, illegal wildlife trading and other unlawful activities directed at animals firmly within Green Criminology, the book contends that this is a distinct, multi-dimensional type of criminality which persists despite the introduction of relevant legislation. Taking a broad approach, the book considers the killing and harming of animals in an international context and examines the effectiveness of current legislation, policy and sentencing. Including a section on further reading and useful organizations, this book is a valuable exploration into perspectives on the responsibility owed by man to animals as part of broader ecological and legal concerns. It will interest criminologists, ecologists, animal protectionists and those interested in law and society and law and the environment.

Are We Pushing Animals to Their Biological Limits?
Author: Temple Grandin
Publisher: CABI
ISBN: 178639054X
Category : Medical
Languages : en
Pages : 224
Book Description
Stimulating and thought-provoking, this important new text looks at the welfare problems and philosophical and ethical issues that are caused by changes made to an animal's telos, behaviour and physiology, both positive and negative, to make them more productive or adapted for human uses. These changes may involve selective breeding for production, appearance traits, or competitive advantage in sport, transgenic animals or the use of pharmaceuticals or hormones to enhance production or performance. Changes may impose duties to care for these animals further and more intensely, or they may make the animal more robust. The book considers a wide range of animals, including farm animals, companion animals and laboratory animals. It reviews the ethics and welfare issues of animals that have been adapted for sport, as companions, in work, as ornaments, food sources, guarding and a whole host of other human functions. This important new book sparks debate and is essential reading for all those involved in animal welfare and ethics, including veterinarians, animal scientists, animal welfare scientists and ethologists.
