Preventing Animal Abuse and Exploitation: An Assessment of Wildlife, Captive, and Domestic Animal Treatment provides an overview of the continuum of human-animal interactions, ranging from activities in natural habitats to those in captive environments and in fashion and food. As the scientific process of conducting and communicating research is slow and hindered by gaps in knowledge, people are more likely to encounter information by themselves via traditional or digital media exposes and social media. Both scientific and anecdotal reports suggest that there is a link between exploitation, the abuse of animals and that of vulnerable people, hence these psychological aspects are explored.

As people become more aware of animal sentience, feelings and emotions, our society is having to address issues around animal rights and advocacy. Similarly, growing awareness of climate change and environmental issues is resulting in a need to consider the unsustainable practices related to animal production. This book provides simple, everyday behavior solutions that readers can implement to live their lives and educate others in a more mindful and compassionate way.
  • Presents both scientific evidence and anecdotal evidence from a range of sources to provide a comprehensive account of global interactions between humans and other animals, and the use of animals for human purposes and consumption
  • Considers the positives and negatives of every topic, helping readers decide where they stand on issues
  • Includes suggestions on how people can make responsible choices and changes in their lives
  • Provides a psychological perspective on animal exploitation and abuse and how to foster healthy, positive and meaningful interactions between humans, animals and the environment
