"Anthrozoology, also known as human–nonhuman-animal studies (HAS), is the subset of ethnobiology that deals with interactions between humans and other animals. It is an interdisciplinary field that overlaps with other disciplines including anthropology, ethnology, medicine, psychology, social work, veterinary medicine, and zoology."
Examines the interaction between human culture and behavior and how it affects non-human animals in their respective ecosystems.
Culture: The shared beliefs, values, customs, behaviors, and artifacts that characterize a group or society.
Society: A group of people who live together in a specific geographical area and share common values, beliefs, and cultural practices.
Evolution: The process by which species adapt and change over time.
Archaeology: The study of human societies and cultures through the analysis of their material remains.
Linguistics: The study of language and its structure, history, and variation.
Biological anthropology: The study of the biological and physical aspects of human evolution and variation.
Primatology: The study of primates (including humans) and their behavior, biology, and ecology.
Ethnography: The study of people and their cultural practices, often through fieldwork and observation.
Gender: The social and cultural construction of identities, roles, and behaviors that are associated with femininity and masculinity.
Anthropological theory: The development and refinement of relationships between fundamental anthropological concepts.
Medical anthropology: The intersection of medicine, health, and culture.
Environmental anthropology: The study of the relationships between humans and their environments, including the impact of human activities on the natural world.
Globalization: The process by which societies and economies around the world become increasingly interconnected and interdependent.
Religion: The beliefs, values, practices, and symbols that constitute the relationship between humans and the divine or supernatural.
Race and ethnicity: Social, biological, and cultural categories used to classify and distinguish groups of people.
Cultural anthropology: It is the study of human cultures, beliefs, practices, and behaviors, including institutions, art, and languages.
Biological/Physical anthropology: This branch of anthropology deals with the biological and physical characteristics of humans, including their genetics, evolution, and anatomy.
Linguistic anthropology: This subfield of anthropology focuses on the study of languages, their evolution, and their role in various cultures.
Archaeology: Archaeology is the study of the human past, primarily through the excavation and analysis of artifacts and other material remains.
Forensic anthropology: This field uses physical anthropology techniques to identify human remains and provide evidence for legal investigations.
medical anthropology: This subfield investigates the relationship between health and culture, including the ways that cultural beliefs, practices, and social structures influence health.
Applied anthropology: This is the application of anthropological knowledge and skills to address practical problems and effect social change.
Ecological anthropology: This type of anthropology examines the relationships between humans and their environment and how they transform it.
Visual anthropology: It is the study of visual media and its role in shaping culture and society.
Economic anthropology: It is the study of how humans produce, distribute, and consume goods and services, and the impact of economic systems on human behavior and culture.
Political anthropology: This subfield focuses on the study of political processes, power relations, and political systems in societies.
Urban anthropology: It is the study of cities and their complex social and cultural dynamics.
"A major focus of anthrozoologic research is the quantifying of the positive effects of human–animal relationships on either party and the study of their interactions."
"Anthrozoology scholars, such as Pauleen Bennett recognize the lack of scholarly attention given to non-human animals in the past."
"[...] to the relationships between human and non-human animals, especially in the light of the magnitude of animal representations, symbols, stories and their actual physical presence in human societies."
"Rather than a unified approach, the field currently consists of several methods adapted from the several participating disciplines to encompass human–nonhuman animal relationships and occasional efforts to develop sui generis methods."
