Abstract

The practice of wild animal captivity serves to augment their populations and preserve their genetic integrity. The spotted deer (Axis axis) captive area at Hasanuddin University’s Faculty of Animal Science not only serves these conservation objectives but also provides an interactive experience for visitors. The welfare of these captive deer is influenced by feed management strategies, the adequacy of facilities, and the impact of visitor interactions. This study employs a semi-quantitative approach to assess the welfare practices for spotted deer at the university’s breeding center. The assessment is structured around the questionnaire provided in the Regulation of the Director General of Forest Protection and Nature Conservation No. P.6/IV-SET/2011 concerning Guidelines for Assessment of Conservation Institutions, which utilizes the five freedoms of animal welfare as its assessment framework. Observations and interviews reveal that the welfare provision for the spotted deer is rated at 66.8%, qualifying it as adequate. The assessment highlights areas where improvements can be made to enhance the overall well-being of the deer, such as customized feeding and handling of pregnant and lactating deer as well as visitor interaction management.

Abstract

Animal welfare is a critical aspect of livestock management, yet its implementation among smallholder farmers often remains inadequate. This study assessed the knowledge, attitudes, and practices (KAP) of cattle farmers in Tamangapa Subdistrict, Manggala District, Makassar City, Indonesia, where cattle are grazed at the Tamangapa urban landfill. A structured questionnaire was administered to 32 respondents, and data were analyzed using Spearman correlation, Kruskal-Wallis, and Mann-Whitney-Wilcoxon tests. Results revealed an average knowledge score of 0.92 (out of 1), an attitude score of 4.59 (out of 5), and a practice score of 3.07 (out of 5). No significant correlations were observed between knowledge, attitudes, and practices. However, significant positive correlations were observed between knowledge and the number of cattle (ρ = 0.548; p = 0.001) and between attitude and education (ρ = 0.362; p = 0.042), and a negative correlation between attitude and age (ρ = −0.468; p = 0.007). These results highlight the influence of demographic factors on animal welfare awareness and behaviors, emphasizing the need for targeted education and training programs to bridge the gap between knowledge and practice.
