Animal Care Standards

Animal Care Standards are guidelines designed to ensure that animals are treated humanely and their needs are properly met. These standards cover aspects like proper shelter, nutrition, health care, and enrichment to promote well-being. They emphasize minimizing stress and suffering, providing safe environments, and ensuring animals receive appropriate medical attention. Implemented by organizations or facilities, these standards help maintain high levels of ethical and responsible animal management, supporting the physical and psychological health of animals in various settings such as farms, zoos, shelters, and research institutions.
