Animal Welfare Inspector
Animal Welfare Inspectors perform a vital function of monitoring and reporting animal health, treatment, and usage. Their careful investigation powers the decisions that keep animals in captivity safe, healthy, and protected, and ensure that we all may enjoy and benefit from animal life in ways that are sustainable and responsible. Some of the responsibilities of an Animal Welfare Inspector include ensuring that animals are free from distress—whether due to pain, disease, or environment, that all animals are properly fed and watered, and visited by a veterinarian annually, and that animals are not subject to improper confinement. Some of the industries that Animal Welfare Inspectors regulate are zoos, aquariums, research facilities, and all agricultural businesses.
