Even in the fast-moving 21st century, animals, and the industries built around them, heavily affect our daily lives as well as our economy.

We’ll be tackling this discussion from all angles: animals as servants, pets, and food sources.

How has the emotional dynamic changed, specifically the importance of the animal-human bond in relation to our mental and physical well-being?

How and why has society’s outlook on animals and livestock changed in the past several decades? How have these changes in attitude affected farming and how has the market shifted?
