<b>Veterinarians’ perspectives on pet abuse, legal involvement, and forensic investigation in Thailand: A cross-sectional study</b>
Gender, age, education level, years since graduation, and workplace were found to influence veterinarians' awareness levels and perspectives. The findings highlight the need for continued education and standardized training to enhance veterinarians' roles in preventing and investigating pet abuse cases. Strengthening forensic veterinary practices can contribute to improved animal welfare and legal enforcement in Thailand.
