Back to Animal Health - General Aspects

Tuesday 31 December 2002

Compassion for Health of Farm Animals 2003

Dr Ruth Watkins

We are indebted to Warmwell (www.warmwell.com) for bringing this important article to our attention.

The many points made by Dr Watkins should be given serious attention by the authorities.

Hopefully her thoughts will help lead the way to a change in mind-set towards animal health, both by Veterinarians and those that support Organic Farming at the expense of animal welfare.

Dr Watkins article can be read in full here.
