The devastating impacts of natural disasters not only directly
affect humans and infrastructure, but also animals, which may be
crucial to the livelihoods of many people. This book considers the
needs of animals in the aftermath of disasters and explains the
importance of looking to their welfare in extreme events. The
authors explore how animals are affected by specific disaster
types, what their emergency and subsequent welfare needs are and
the appropriate interventions. They describe the key benefits of
management of animals to populations and discuss preventative
measures that can be taken to reduce risk and build resilience.
They also include a summary of recent debates and public policy
advances on animals in disasters. The book covers livestock,
companion and wild animals, with case studies to show how the
concepts can be put into practice. It provides a standalone text
for students of disaster studies and management as well as
professionals and NGOs who require an entry-level introduction to
the subject.
