A very interesting course ! Serious and much developed work. Nice special interactive lessons (though speaking english is necessary to understand them), important to get deeper information about some themes. This course is very useful, to be able to evaluate animals welfare through their behaviour, and then to improve it with suitable ways. I just wish there would be more concrete examples of enrichment for wild animals in captivity... I hope this course will be used by more and more people in the world. Our animal friends need it ! Thank you ! Cours très intéressant, et développé. Les leçons interactives apportent des infos complémentaires bienvenues sur quelques thèmes (mais il faut pouvoir lire l'anglais...). Cours très utile pour apprendre à évaluer le bien-être d'un animal grâce à son comportement, et pour pouvoir l'améliorer par des moyens appropriés...

The course provides an interesting insight into the behavior of captive animals and introduces aspects of welfare that are lacking in many animal keeping facilities. However, a decent portion of the information provided on the course are common knowledge, making some lectures quite tedious and sometimes, repetitive. Despite so, the course provides a good range of accompanying materials for those wanting to dig deeper in their preferred topic throughout the unites. In my personal opinion, units 6 and 7 are the most interesting as they discuss not only the welfare of pets and wild animals, but also are packed with lectures on the natural behaviors of those animals which I find absolutely insightful.

I do recommend this course, I particularly consider that knowing and understanding animal welfare is extremely important and interesting. Good content, lots of things to thing about, furthermore as I am a non-native English speaker, I was able to practice and learn a wide variety of English words, especially in this field which I really enjoy, but to be honest courses like this one need to be updating, maybe every 2 or 3 years. I mean, since this course was released (I believe it was in 2015) there have been lots of new information, and new results about animal welfare researches and how people have been thinking about this subject.

Un curso excelente que nos brinda información relevante y concisa acera de la situación que viven muchos animales bajo el cuidado y responsabilidad humana, mascotas, animales de granja y animales en cautiverio ej: zoológicos, circos, etc. Resalta claramente los principales desafíos que enfrenta cada animal y lo que se necesita para ofrecerles un ambiente enriquecedor y que supla efectivamente todas sus necesidades de bienestar basándose en su comportamiento. Obviando todo mito, creencia, perspectiva y antropoformismo, y centrándonos en los sentimientos, gustos, preferencias y punto de vista del animal.

Well presented, clear and informative with lots of resources for self-study outside of the course.
Only 4 star however, as some of the subtitles need reworking. The majority is clear and easy to read, however there are some spelling errors and some of the words written in the subtitles are clearly not the words being spoken by the course provider - I'd assume a text-transcription software was used for this as the words sound similar but are quite obviously out of context.
Overall, I really enjoyed the course and would be happy to take another by The University of Edinburgh based on this experience.

This course is great for anyone who is doing animal healthcare or any related field. It gives good principles of what is proper welfare and also the issues of negative or debative welfare. They also talk about how welfare is applied in certain countries to give realistic perspectives and thought of how the world conducts it's business in the world of animal livestock farming, or wildlife captivity. It's a real eye opener and I'd recommend people who are just generally animal lovers, professional or not, to take this course. I absolutely enjoyed it and learned new things from it!
