Industrial Farm Animal Production

Humans have domesticated and handled animals for 14,000 years.  Modern times have brought urbanization and technology which have caused a drastic decline in human-animal interactions.  As a result, the knowledge of how to properly handle, restrain, and house animals is in decline.  In Better Animal Handling, C.B. Chastain, veterinarian and professor emeritus, describes effective, humane animal handling with emphasis on safety measures to prevent injury and the transmission of zoonotic diseases.
