Description

Explore the complex relationship between human intervention and animal reproduction in Animal Breeding, Welfare and Society by Routledge. This text examines how the timing, frequency, and methods of animal breeding have shifted from natural evolutionary pressures toward human-driven purposes. As we manage the breeding of billions of mammals and birds for food production, alongside the cultivation of pedigree pets, racing animals, and specialized laboratory strains, significant ethical questions arise. The book addresses the use of reproductive science in modern contexts, including the conservation of endangered species and the management of pest populations. Readers will find a detailed look at the sustainability and ethics of human control over animal reproductive lives. This work is essential for those studying animal sciences, animal rights, and the biological impacts of modern breeding practices. It provides a necessary perspective on how human needs shape the biological realities of the animal kingdom.
