Dromedary camel behavior and welfarecamel friendly management practices /[electronic resource] :edited by Barbara Padalino, Bernard Faye ; co-ordinating Editor : Carly I.

Chapter 1: The camels: from domestication to XXIe century -- Chapter 2: How early domestication and modern genomics contribute to camel welfare -- Chapter 3: Welfare assessment in dromedary camels -- Chapter 4: Good feeding: nutrition and feeding of the Arabian camel (Camelus dromedarius) -- Chapter 5: Good Housing: Camels and Their Interaction with the Environment -- Chapter 6: Good Health: recognition and prevention of disease and pain in dromedary camels -- Chapter 7: Behaviour: behavioural repertoire and behavioural needs of camels -- Chapter 8: Camel handling & training -- Chapter 9: Welfare aspects of reproductive care and management of dromedary camels -- Chapter 10: Stress transport in the dromedary camel -- Chapter 11: The welfare of Dromedary camels at slaughter.

This volume gives a comprehensive review on dromedary camel handling and management by respecting its welfare, which is a global first. Beyond that, it provides a new welfare assessment tool. Expert authors lay the groundwork for understanding the animals by covering domestication, camels' behavioral repertoire and needs, as well as dromedary camel genetics and coping with production systems. Then, the reader is equipped with the latest expertise on good management practices in camel farms, including transport, feeding, housing from racing to dairy systems, and health and hygiene. Moreover, the impact of innovative reproduction techniques and, finally, slaughter are taken into account. Camels, long confined to desert areas and kept extensively, have recently faced changes in husbandry systems and their environment. Intensification and specialization for milk, meat or sport purpose, as well as new geographic conditions have had significant impact on camel welfare. This book is a must-read for all camel industry members, breeders, veterinarians, and researchers, who want to practice camel breeding and management while safeguarding the behavioral needs and welfare of these amazing animals.
