Animal Rehoming

The rehoming of animals that have been used in research and teaching is encouraged wherever possible, and where it is in the best interests of the animals being rehomed and public safety.

These voluntary Guidelines are designed for everyone involved in the use of animals for recognised research purposes to provide guidance on the rehoming of animals used for scientific purposes. They have been developed in accordance with the Animal Research Act 1985, and the underpinning regulations, and the Australian Code for the Care and Use of Animals for Scientific Purposes.
