The person must ensure that the animal under their supervision is being taken care of in a humane manner.<\/p>\n<p>Although, the responsibility for animals is taken into consideration since ancient times. It almost started 10,000 years back when the concern &amp; love for animals resulted in their domestication and making them involved in <a href=\"http:\/\/www.naiaonline.org\/articles\/article\/what-is-animal-welfare-and-why-is-it-important#sthash.MXJe649G.CgJAdXOZ.dpbs\">agriculture work<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>Breeding of animals started to flourish which gave the need for considering animal welfare to be adopted for making the bond between animals and humans more strong.<\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Importance_of_Animal_Welfare\"><\/span>Importance of Animal Welfare<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>The term animal welfare is mostly used in terms of physical wellbeing. In the early days, farmers and veterinarians were mainly focused on providing food and shelter to animals.<\/p>\n<p>The welfare of animals is also related to psychological wellbeing along with monitoring heart functioning, to analyze the ability of the animals to adapt or work in any given environment.<\/p>\n<p>Although, these measures provide a satisfactory result they cannot guarantee the <strong><span style=\"color: #ff0000;\"><a style=\"color: #ff0000;\" href=\"https:\/\/rememberanimals.com\/pets-helping-with-depression\/\">mental health<\/a> <\/span><\/strong>of the animal.

It serves the sole purpose of providing protection against animal abuse. In the year 1966 United States has the animal welfare act (AWA) which was brought in by Lyndon B. Johnson.<\/p>\n<p>It was for the protection of animals against their misuse in the entertainment industry or places such as <a href=\"https:\/\/rememberanimals.com\/types-of-circus-animals\/\"><strong><span style=\"color: #0000ff;\">circuses<\/span><\/strong><\/a> or zoos. It serves as the major legal action to provide animals protection against cruelty.

Although it also can be traded for the benefit of humans as long the rightful purpose is served.<\/p>\n<p>Animal rights directly advocate that similarly to human beings animals also have feelings and emotions that cannot be looked over for the benefit of others.<\/p>\n<p>Animal welfare states that it is applied to a situation where animals are governed by humans. The farming of animals is a clear example of animal welfare animals are kept or used for human benefit.<\/p>\n<p>It is done if a clear justification is being done to not compensate the animal sacrifice. Animal welfare stands for the betterment of animals but allows their usage for various purposes only if humane measures are taken into consideration.<\/p>\n<p>Whereas, animal right is used for the betterment of the animals. It states that humans have rights that cannot be altered. However, animal rights must have some limitations in order to avoid any conflict.<\/p>\n<p>Animal rights stand against the misuse and mistreatment of animals. These rights protect animals from the purpose of entertainment, food, clothing, and their usage in scientific <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.peta.org\/about-peta\/faq\/what-is-the-difference-between-animal-rights-and-animal-welfare\/\">labs for experimentation<\/a>.<\/strong><\/p>\n<h4><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Animal_Welfare_Issues_of_Concern\"><\/span>Animal Welfare Issues of Concern<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h4>\n<p>The misuse of animals occurs when there are no proper guidelines to administer animal wellbeing. An animal should not be used in the entertainment, clothing, and food industries as it destroys the physical and mental health of the animal.<\/p>\n<h5><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Animal_Experimentation\"><\/span><strong>Animal Experimentation<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h5>\n<p>In scientific laboratories, drug testing is done on animals. They are openly mistreated and manhandled to fulfill the testing process. In the United States alone more than 25 million animals every year go through drug testing.<\/p>\n<p>Animals such as guinea pigs, mice, rabbits, bats, and pigs undergo mental and physical stress. Most of these animals never see the light of the day and live most of their lives in cages.<\/p>\n<h5><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Dealing_with_Stress\"><\/span><strong>Dealing with Stress<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h5>\n<p>It is the most common form of animal misuse under captivity. Lack of activities and loneliness often results in mental stress and depression, the major cause behind this is boredom.<\/p>\n<p>Animals in zoos are provided with tires, barrels, and artificial surroundings to engage them in activities and provide relief from stress. The artificial environment can never compensate for the benefit of living in a natural environment.<\/p>\n<h5><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Animal_Farming\"><\/span><strong>Animal Farming<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h5>\n<p>The large-scale industrial production of animals such as cows, pigs, chickens, and sheep are the most affected species due to animal farming.

The usage of horns and tusks of animals causes poaching which directly affects their population.<\/p>\n<p>It is estimated that almost 3 million animals get caught every year. Mostly for sending to different parts of the world for killing. Animals are kept in cages &amp; transported to different locations and are kept in these conditions until they are killed to fulfill human needs.<\/p>\n<h5><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Conclusion\"><\/span><strong>Conclusion<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h5>\n<p>Animal welfare is important for animal wellbeing.
