Product Description
Know what constitutes normal and abnormal animal behavior. If you are involved with animal legal issues, you will find that Animal Law and Dog Behavior gives all the information you need to decide what courses of action are possible and appropriate. A veritable refresher course on the legal matrix concerning animals, it focuses on the species most troublesome to individuals and the legal system: dogs. With up-to-date information on the current state of the law, most cases examined are lower-court opinions from 1960 to the present. Well reasoned and analyzed, they may be used to draw together the national outlook on a particular issue. In areas where state statutes play a predominant role in articulating the law, the authors have selected regional states whose statutes are most representative of these areas. As animals become an increasingly important part of our lives, disputes between people about animals and conflicts between people and animals are likely to increase. For this reason, it is especially important for attorneys to understand which behaviors are considered normal and which are considered abnormal. Topics covered: Animal behavior related to dogbite statutes
Behavioral discovery in dog-related injury cases
Defenses for owners
Ethology and epidemiology of canine aggression
Evaluation of fatal dog bites
Liabilities of an owner or keeper
Pack behavior of dogs
Rights of ownership
The dog bite problem
Veterinarian malpractice
