Journal Title：Animal Welfare

Animal Welfare is an international scientific and technical journal. It publishes the results of peer-reviewed scientific research, technical studies and reviews relating to the welfare of kept animals (eg on farms, in laboratories, zoos and as companions) and of those in the wild whose welfare is compromised by human activities. Papers on related ethical, social, and legal issues and interdisciplinary papers will also be considered for publication. Studies that are derivative or which replicate existing publications will only be considered if they are adequately justified.

Papers will only be considered if they bring new knowledge (for research papers), new perspectives (for reviews) or develop new techniques. Papers must have the potential to improve animal welfare, and the way in which they achieve this, or are likely to do so, must be clearly specified in the section on Animal welfare implications.

《動物福利》是一本國際科學技術期刊。它發表同行評審的科學研究、技術研究和評論的結果，這些研究涉及飼養動物（例如在農場、實驗室、動物園和作為伴侶的動物）的福利以及因人類活動而福利受損的野生動物的福利。有關倫理、社會和法律問題的論文以及跨學科論文也將被考慮發表。衍生研究或復制現有出版物的研究只有在充分論證的情況下才會被考慮。

只有論文帶來新知識（用于研究論文）、新觀點（用于評論）或開發新技術時，才會被考慮。論文必須具有改善動物福利的潛力，并且必須在“動物福利影響”部分明確說明實現這一目標的方式或可能實現這一目標的方式。

Animal Welfare創刊于1992年，由Universities Federation for Animal Welfare出版商出版，收稿方向涵蓋農林科學 - 動物學全領域，此期刊水平偏中等偏靠后，在所屬細分領域中專業影響力一般，過審相對較易，如果您文章質量佳，選擇此期刊，發表機率較高。平均審稿速度 較慢,18-36周 ，影響因子指數1.4，該期刊近期沒有被列入國際期刊預警名單，廣大學者值得一試。
