RESUMEN
Se revisan brevemente las razones del porqué el Bienestar animal actualmente es considerado una ciencia que debe ser incluida en el plan de estudios de las escuelas y facultades de Medicina Veterinaria y Zootecnia. Se menciona que los conocimientos actuales sobre anatomía, fisiología, neurobiología y otros, nos comprueban que el organismo animal y en especial su sistema nervioso central (SNC) tienen muchas similitudes con los del ser humano y que los estudios observacionales y de comportamiento animal demuestran que los animales se dan cuenta, sufren ansiedad, miedo, estrés y dolor. Se subraya la relación que tiene el bienestar de los animales con la producción y se concluye que es necesario que los médicos veterinarios y zootecnistas conozcan el comportamiento de los animales, sus bases fisiológicas y neurológicas a fondo, para procurarles a un estado de bienestar que a su vez repercutirá en el éxito de su producción.
