Abstract

This 273-paged book outlines a number of the key dilemmas in animal welfare for today's, and tomorrow's, world. The issues discussed range from the welfare of hunted animals, to debates around intensive farming versus sustainability, and the effects of climate and environmental change. It explores the effects of fences on wild animals and human impacts on carrion animals; the impacts of tourism on animal welfare; philosophical questions about speciesism; and the quality and quantity of animal lives. The welfare impacts of human-animal interactions are explored, including human impacts on marine mammals, fish, wildlife, and companion and farm animals. Salient features of this book includes being concise, opinion-based views on important issues in animal welfare by world experts and key opinion leaders. Pieces based on experience, which balance evidence-based approaches and the welfare impacts of direct engagement through training, campaigning and education. A wide-ranging collection of examples and descriptions of animal welfare topics which outline dilemmas in the real world, that are sometimes challenging, and not always comfortable reading. This book is highly recommended for animal and veterinary scientists, ethologists, policy and opinion leaders, NGOs, conservation biologists and anyone who feels passionately about the welfare of animals.

Abstract

Nul n'existe sans laisser de traces. Pister, alors, est une manière très sûre pour apprendre à connaître quelqu'un : de l'ours du Yellowstone aux loups du Var, de la panthère des neiges du Kirghizistan aux lombrics de nos composts d'appartement. A travers les récits de ses expériences de pistage, Baptiste Morizot nous invite à voir par les yeux des grands prédateurs qu'il rencontre. Pister, c'est décrypter indices et empreintes à la manière d'un détective sauvage pour demander : qui habite ici ? Comment vivent-ils ? Et surtout, comment faire monde commun avec eux ? A partir du terrain, le pistage devient philosophique : il se transforme en une pratique de la sensibilité, en la recherche d'une autre qualité d'attention. C'est une expédition vers des contrées inexplorées : nos relations au vivant et à nos animalités intérieures.
