Interest in animal emotions is increasing, highlighting their complex experiences. The edited book, "Mental Health and Well-being in Animals," by Frank McMillan and colleagues, compiles research on animal mental health across species. This collection underscores the importance of understanding animal stress and psychological well-being to provide better care.

This book aims to bridge that gap and enhance the approach to animal welfare and emotional health through increased awareness.
