The second edition of this highly regarded work combines the philosophical and ethical dimensions of animal law with the practical, legal and regulatory frameworks governing animals in Australia. Written in a clear, engaging and accessible style, it is suitable as a teaching text for Animal Law courses, and for the wider legal community and general reader interested in animal welfare.
The new edition has been fully revised and updated to cover recent developments in both case law and legislation across many topics including:

liability of local councils in relation to Dangerous Dogs Policies
liability of owners of companion animals who cause loss or damage
