AVMA: What is Euthanasia?
Euthanasia is derived from the Greek terms eu meaning good and thanatos meaning death. The term is usually used to describe ending the life of an individual animal in a way that minimizes or eliminates pain and distress. A good death is tantamount to the humane termination of an animal’s life.
51
AVMA: The veterinarian’s duty in carrying out euthanasia includes these 2 things:
(1) their humane disposition to induce death in a manner that is in accord with an animal’s interest and/or because it is a matter of welfare. (2) the use of humane techniques to induce the most rapid and painless and distress-free death possible.
52
AVMA: Is AVMA a regulatory body?
No. AVMA offers guidance to those who may apply these Guidelines as part of regulatory structures designed to protect the welfare of animals used for human purposes.
53
AVMA: How are euthanasia methods classified in the Guidelines?
Acceptable, Acceptable with Conditions, and Unacceptable.
54
AVMA: What are the different methods of euthanasia?
