CephsInAction
A network for improvement of cephalopod welfare and husbandry in research, aquaculture and fisheries. This site is a database for the participants in the project.
Identification of the basic needs of cephalopods is an essential prerequisite for developing the CephsInAction welfare index-models (CWI-Ms) and the prospective severity assessments. The CWI-Ms are focused on a selected subset of relevant cephalopod species and each model will rely on species specific information about how different welfare indicators influence the animal's overall welfare status. The database provides a semantic modeling framework for linking needs with statements from the literature of how much different welfare indicators impact animal welfare and combining it into an overall scoring system.
This internet database will facilitate easy cooperation between CephsInAction members in developing the CWI-Ms.
More information is available at the project's website.
