European Journal of Wildlife Research published this article.
OIE/IVSA student competition 2015
Animal welfare is a complex subject with scientific, ethical, economic, cultural and political dimensions.
Today, animal producers are increasingly taking animal welfare into account and some have come to see it as a characteristic of quality of their products. Consumers’ concern in animal welfare is also constantly growing. Therefore this topic is becoming more and more central in the preoccupations of veterinarians, nowadays as well as in the upcoming years.
As a future representative of the veterinary profession, you will need to prove your leadership in this area.
