This book explores the role, impact and experiences of animals within organisations and the wider socioeconomic contexts in which they participate.Animals are vital to business. From agriculture to tourism, logistics to digital media, animals work, reproduce, create value and support livelihoods. Yet business and management theory still largely treats organisations as purely human domains. Animals and Business challenges this view. By introducing an interspecies approach to responsible management, the book explores how animals are not just resources or external ethical concerns, but key actors within organisations and industries. It examines how business practices shape animals' lives and how, in turn, animals influence how value is created and sustained. Each chapter takes an animal-centred approach to a familiar idea such as work, consumption and innovation. Case studies range from broiler chickens in global supply chains to bees in forest honey economies and pain-detection dogs in Nordic healthcare. Developed in dialogue with international scholars, the book’s central claim is simple: Business is better understood, and better practised, when we recognise the animals whose lives and labour are intertwined with it.This book is essential reading for students and researchers working at the intersection of business studies, animal studies and sustainability.

Humans and animals have developed multiple and complex interactions in the fields of tourism, leisure, and development. However, much of the existing research on how humans and animals interact in these fields has emerged from within the context of developed countries. As a result, little has been documented about human-animal interactions in the socioeconomic, cultural, and environmental contexts of countries in the Global South. Specifically, the diversity and complexity of interspecies relationships in tourism, leisure, and local development in Latin America have been largely ignored in Anglo-Saxon literature. This has resulted in a limited, partial, and hegemonic understanding and debate about human-animal relationships globally, dominated by certain regions of the world. This book addresses this gap by documenting multiple and complex relationships between humans and animals in the fields of tourism, leisure, and local development in countries in Latin America. The book: Brings together empirical and conceptual works that reveal different disciplinary, theoretical, ethical, methodological, and practical perspectives. Reveals how human-animal relationships - both domestic and wild - can result in co-created interspecies experiences, conflicts, conservation efforts, welfare, and local development of human societies in the region. Equips stakeholders with conceptual frameworks and actionable tools to formulate policies that blend animal welfare and sustainability in Latin American tourism and recreation strategies. Challenges dominant narratives from the Global North regarding tourism and conservation, promoting a more inclusive and nuanced approach. This book will be of interest to researchers, professionals and policymakers within tourism, leisure, animal welfare, conservation and destination development.
