Description

The Welfare of Pigs explores the complex lives of domestic pigs in a changing world. While pigs are recognized for their intelligence and character, many people in industrialized societies have limited contact with them. This book addresses the diverse environments these animals inhabit, ranging from tropical regions to sub-arctic climates. Readers will examine the differences between small-scale extensive systems and large-scale intensive farming operations. The text covers the various life experiences of pigs, including the impact of staying on a single farm versus undergoing long-distance transport multiple times. By bringing together a team of leading pig welfare research scientists, this work provides a deep look into how different environmental factors and management practices affect animal well-being. It is a valuable resource for understanding the many aspects of pig life and the scientific research surrounding their welfare.
