Animal welfare science : ウィキペディア英語版 | Animal welfare science Animal welfare science is the scientific study of the welfare of animals as pets, in zoos, laboratories, on farms and in the wild. Although animal welfare has been of great concern for many thousands of years in religion and culture, the investigation of animal welfare using rigorous scientific methods is a relatively recent development. The world's first Professor of Animal Welfare Science, Donald Broom, was appointed by Cambridge University (UK) in 1986. ==Historical legislation and guidelines== Early legislation which formed the impetus for assessing animal welfare and the subsequent development of animal welfare science include the Ireland Parliament (Thomas Wentworth) ''"An Act against Plowing by the Tayle, and pulling the Wooll off living Sheep"'', 1635, and the Massachusetts Colony (Nathaniel Ward) ''"Off the Bruite Creatures"'' Liberty 92 and 93 in the ''"Massachusetts Body of Liberties"'' of 1641.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Animal Rights History )〕 Richard Martin's act, the ''"Cruel Treatment of Cattle Act 1822"'' is often considered to be the precursor of modern relevant legislation. One of the first national laws to protect animals was the UK ''"Cruelty to Animals Act 1835"'' followed by the ''"Protection of Animals Act 1911"''. In the US it was many years until there was a National law to protect animals - the ''"Animal Welfare Act of 1966"'' - although there were a number of states that passed anti-cruelty laws between 1828 and 1898.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=AWIC )〕 In India, animals are protected by the ''"Prevention of Cruelty to Animals Act, 1960"''. In the UK, the ''"Animal Welfare Act 2006"'' consolidated many different forms of animal welfare legislation. Animal welfare science can be considered as the assessment of welfare. The first publication to include the term "assessment" appears to be a 1965 appendix by William Thorpe entitled ''The assessment of pain and distress in animals''.〔Thorpe, W.H., (1965). The assessment of pain and distress in animals. Appendix III in the report of the technical committee to enquire into the welfare of animals kept under intensive husbandry conditions, F.W.R. Brambell (chairman). H.M.S.O., London〕 This was followed 20 years later by a highly influential paper on assessing pain and distress in laboratory animals by Morton and Griffiths.〔Morton, D.B. and Griffiths, P.H.M., (1985). Guidelines on the recognition of pain, distress and discomfort in experimental animals and an hypothesis for assessment. Veterinary Record, 116: 431–436〕
