Abstract

Animal hoarding is one of the most widespread, severe and complex forms of animal cruelty. This chapter examines why hoarding is a serious human and animal welfare issue that affects thousands of people and hundreds of thousands of animals. Various models are explored for the development and expression of this behaviour, including psychological, social and biological explanations that might lead to better informed interventions for the benefit of all involved. The authors review the legal status of animal hoarding and the possibility of sentencing hoarders, as well as alternatives to prosecution. They argue that an effective societal response to hoarding requires a multi-focused and multi-agency approach. These keywords were added by machine and not by the authors. This process is experimental and the keywords may be updated as the learning algorithm improves.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
