AB Recent research on the welfare of farmed deer, as for other species, has addressed issues relating to transport, housing and slaughter. While most studies have continued to use a behavioural and physiological approach, new methods of assessing welfare need to consider aspects of cognition and awareness, which are not so easily assessed. It is suggested that a systems-based analysis may be one way to obtain a view of welfare from an animal-centred position. Incorporating an economic perspective could indicate whether consumer choice or legislation would be more likely to lead to higher standards.
