Animal welfare refers to the well-being of animals and encompasses the treatment and care they receive from humans. It involves ensuring that animals are provided with appropriate living conditions, adequate food and water, proper medical treatment, and the freedom to express natural behaviors. The concept emphasizes the humane treatment of all animals, whether they are domesticated pets, farm animals, or wildlife, and advocates for their protection from suffering, stress, and abuse. Animal welfare is concerned not only with the absence of suffering but also with promoting good health and positive experiences for animals.
