Animal Management
What is animal management?
Animal management brings together animal care, welfare, and husbandry with the science of animal behaviour, health, nutrition, breeding and genetics. At Capel Manor College, our animal management courses in London help you build the practical knowledge and confidence to work with animals in settings such as zoos, farms, rescue centres, dog grooming businesses and domestic animal care environments.
Professionals in this field help make sure animals are cared for in ways that support their physical and psychological needs. They may work in animal care, zoo management, farming, rescue, conservation, pet care or grooming environments, with a focus on welfare, responsible handling and protecting biodiversity.
