Animal housing refers to the structures and facilities used to house and care for animals in agriculture, research, zoos, and other settings. This area of research focuses on designing and managing housing systems that provide animals with a safe, comfortable, and healthy living environment. Researchers in this field study factors such as ventilation, temperature control, space requirements, lighting, and sanitation to optimize the well-being and productivity of animals. They may also investigate the effects of different housing systems on animal behavior, physiology, and welfare. Animal housing research plays a crucial role in improving animal welfare, reducing stress and disease in animals, and increasing the efficiency and sustainability of animal production systems.
