There is increasing public concern over environmental and ecological issues, such that they must now be an important consideration in any animal health program. If the proposed program is likely to have adverse environmental or ecological effects it is unlikely to be supported by governments or the general public. However, programs that have a positive impact on the environment (for example by reducing the feral animal population) are likely to be well-supported.
