    Sammanfattning : African savanna elephants (Loxondonta africana) are the world’s largest land-mammal and are considered a keystone species. The effect they have on vegetation and their environment is well known, but their effect on other animal species is less studied. LÄS MER

  2. 2. Sentient Objects — A Theoretical Analysis of the Potential of Animals as Legal Subjects

    Magister-uppsats, Göteborgs universitet/Juridiska institutionen

    Författare :Alice Edfast; [2023-04-26]
    Nyckelord :Jurisprudence; Legal theory; The legal subject; Legal personhood; The person-thing dichotomy; Animal Law theory; Animal sentience; Animal slaughter; Animal testing; Legal rights; Hohfeld’s fundamental legal conceptions; Speciesism; Humanism; Posthumanism; Greimas’ semiotic square;

    Sammanfattning : The sentience of animals has been scientifically proven since the nineteenth century, which has led to changes in our attitude towards animals and to the proliferation of anti-cruelty laws. But despite the rise of an Animal Law discipline, animal rights organisations’ attempting to elevate the legal status of animals, and several recent European legislative changes categorising animals as “non-things”, the legal status of a person has not yet been extended to animals.

  3. 3. Dairy To Be Great : Enhancing Dairy Farming Practices and Designing an Information Dashboard for Animal Health and Reproduction Data

    Kandidat-uppsats, Linköpings universitet/Institutionen för datavetenskap

    Författare :Dora Krznaric; [2023]
    Nyckelord :;

    Sammanfattning : This thesis presents a comprehensive research study aimed at designing an information dashboard to address the specific information needs of dairy farmers in relation to animal health and reproduction data. The research focused on answering two key research questions: (1) How can we determine which factors are most relevant in terms of farms productivity and wellbeing of its animals? and (2) How can we visualize the data and farms history in a meaningful way so that the owner can make sense of it and therefore make better decisions for future planning?To answer these questions, extensive user research was conducted within the dairy farming community, involving interviews, literature review and surveys.
