Download or read book Animal Experimentation Working Towards a Paradigm Change written by Kathrin Herrmann and published by BRILL. This book was released on 2019-04-30 with total page 749 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Animal experimentation has been one of the most controversial areas of animal use, mainly due to the intentional harms inflicted upon animals for the sake of hoped-for benefits in humans. Despite this rationale for continued animal experimentation, shortcomings of this practice have become increasingly more apparent and well-documented. However, these limitations are not yet widely known or appreciated, and there is a danger that they may simply be ignored. The 51 experts who have contributed to Animal Experimentation: Working Towards a Paradigm Change critically review current animal use in science, present new and innovative non-animal approaches to address urgent scientific questions, and offer a roadmap towards an animal-free world of science.

Download or read book Nonhuman Primate Welfare written by Lauren M. Robinson and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2023-02-01 with total page 666 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This volume reviews the broad topic of welfare in nonhuman primates under human care. Chapters detail the history of primates in captivity, ethical and legal issues surrounding the use of nonhuman primates as entertainment or in research, the different approaches that welfare are measured, and how housing, enrichment, and other conditions can foster or degrade welfare. Since humans began keeping nonhuman primates we have made vast strides in understanding their cognitive abilities, strong social bonds, vibrant personalities, and their capacity for joy and suffering. With an increasing number of countries banning the use of great apes in biomedical research, the welfare of primates in zoos and research facilities has gained increasing attention. This interdisciplinary work features contributors from many of the fields involved and those on both sides of the issue, thus providing an exhaustive overview of primate welfare. Readers from animal welfare science, primatology, animal testing, veterinary medicine, conservation to ethics and legislation will find this an important account.

Download or read book Environmental Enrichment for Nonhuman Primates Resource Guide written by Kristina M. Adams and published by . This book was released on 2006 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the 1985 amendments to the Animal Welfare Act, Congress included a requirement that facilities housing nonhuman primates provide for the psychological well-being of these animals. This amendment became synonymous with the term "environmental enrichment." According to the USDA, APHIS, Animal Care Research Facility Inspection Guide, facilities that house nonhuman primates must develop and implement an environmental enhancement plan. The plans must address social grouping, environmental enrichment, special considerations, restraint devices, and any exemptions. This resource guide updates the Environmental Enrichment for Nonhuman Primates Resource Guide, edited by Michael Kreger and published by AWIC in 1999. It provides a bibliography of information about enrichment for all primate species, animal training, and abnormal behavior. Resources available on the web are also included.
