Animal Welfare in a Pandemic explores the impact of COVID-19 on a wide array of animals, from those in the wild to companion and captive animals. During the the pandemic, a range of animals were infected, and many died, but this was hard to predict, even using up-to-date bioinformatics. This text highlights what can be learned to protect & enhance animal welfare in future epidemics/pandemics; it contributes to a genuinely One Health approach where the health & welfare of humans & animals are considered holistically. 249 p.
