Synopsis:
Small Animal Science and Care provides today's educators and their students with a new and refreshing comprehensive resource for this growing industry, covering topics that are timely and relate to student interests, such as animal welfare, the roles of animals in society, animal nutrition, and pet first aid. This fresh approach to small animal care appeals to and engages today's high school students with up-to-date information and full-color images. The text also introduces students to a range of careers available in the small animal industry through real-life SAE for All Profiles and Career Connections that include education requirements and current salary ranges. This title helps students develop a deeper understanding of career opportunities, industry expectations, and knowledge and skills related to the care of small animals to prepare for entry-level positions in the industry or for more advanced studies in veterinary science. To connect classroom and experiential learning, Supervised Agricultural Experience (SAE) Connections introduce new SAE opportunities aligned to careers, while all-new SAE for ALL Opportunities and Check-ins provided at the end of each chapter act as additional springboards for planning and decision-making. Hands-On Animal Care and Science features offer step-by-step procedures for safely caring for all kinds of small animals with clear illustrations so students can practice professional tasks in the classroom, while STEM Connections at the end of each chapter provide additional reinforcement for students and assessment for instructors to gauge student progress. The Identification Glossaries provide a means of studying the wide range of animals, tools, diseases, and pests included in the identification portion of FFA Career Development Events and Leadership Development Events. Visual e-flashcards can be easily studied on a mobile phone. Correlated to the Precision Exams by YouScience Small Companion Animal Scie
