About this title

Synopsis

Government leaders, professionals in animal and human protective services, and the public recognize that animal abuse also harms human health and safety. They also recognize that traditional compartmentalized responses to human and animal abuse can be improved through a broader, interdisciplinary strategy that cross-fertilizes information across species and disciplines. This Guide, now in its 3rd and vastly updated and expanded edition, helps officials in multiple fields to create community collaborations for more comprehensive responses to family violence and to fill gaps in services. It provides people working in social services, criminal justice, veterinary and human medicine, animal care and control agencies, researchers, and the general public with tangible tools to identify, report, investigate, and prosecute cases of abuse and neglect. Such cases frequently span the species. Featuring the latest laws, community-based programs and research, this Guide is a must for those who believe that multi-disciplinary measures to prevent, punish and prosecute animal abuse benefit not only Man’s Best Friend, but also Man – and Woman.
