Animal behaviour is unpredictable and high stress scenarios can quickly escalate into life threatening situations, putting handlers at significant risk. In this episode of the Farm Safety Roundup, WSPS Senior Account Manager, Chad Roberts chats with RealAg’s Shaun Haney about the critical importance of planning in advance, taking a species specific approach and understanding animal behaviour to protect both animals and handlers.
