This book investigates how fish experience their lives, their
amazing senses and abilities, and how human actions impact their
quality of life. The authors examine the concept of fish welfare
and the scientific knowledge behind the inclusion of fish within
the moral circle, and how this knowledge can change the way we
treat fish in the future. In many countries fish are already
protected by animal welfare legislation in the same way as mammals,
but in practice there is still a major gap between how we ethically
view these groups and how we actually treat them. The poor
treatment of fish represents a massive animal welfare problem in
aquaculture and fisheries, both in terms of the number of animals
affected and the severity of the welfare issues. Thanks to its
interdisciplinary scope, this thought-provoking book appeals to
professionals, academics and students in the fields of animal
welfare, cognition and physiology, as well as fisheries and
aquaculture management.
