American Attitudes Toward And Knowledge Of Animals: An Update, Stephen R. Kellert
American Attitudes Toward And Knowledge Of Animals: An Update, Stephen R. Kellert
International Journal for the Study of Animal Problems
The distribution of a typology of basic attitudes toward animals in the American population is explored through personal interviews with 3,107 randomly selected persons in the 48 contiguous states and Alaska. Data is presented on the prevalence of these attitudes in the overall American population and among major social demographic and animal activity groups. In addition, results are presented on American knowledge of animals as well as their species preferences. Finally, information is presented on perceptions of critical wildlife issues including endangered species, predator control, hunting, trapping, marine mammals and wildlife habitat protection.

Benign Uses Of Wildlife, Victor B. Scheffer
Benign Uses Of Wildlife, Victor B. Scheffer
International Journal for the Study of Animal Problems
During the Age of Environmental Awareness, which dawned in the late 1960's, Americans turned to using wild animals more benignly(or in ways harmless both to individuals and populations) and less exploitatively. The evidence includes: new federal legislation reflecting a public shift toward benign uses, growth. of interest in 'nongame' wildlife, growth of interest in wildlife watching (rate of increase in number of camera safaris estimated at 32 % per annum in 7 recent years), growth in membership of animal-interest organizations (rate of increase estimated at 7.7% per annum in 15 recent years), and growth of interest in animal rights. Per …
Livestock Behavior As Related To Handling Facilities Design, Temple Grandin
Livestock Behavior As Related To Handling Facilities Design, Temple Grandin
International Journal for the Study of Animal Problems
A knowledge of the behavior of different species of livestock as we// as different breeds within a particular species is essential to the proper planning of a handling facility. An optimal facility should incorporate features which minimize stress on the animal and maximize the efficiency of movement from holding pen to slaughter area. Handler awareness of the animals' perception of critical distance flight zone and personal space requirements also reduces problems with balkin; and alarm behavior. Many improvements can be made with relative ease, thus enabling already existing facilities to upgrade their operations.
