Animal welfare research is growing, although some topics have been studied more in deep than others. Pet species and farm animal welfare are better studied than exotic and wildlife species. However, there are still many gaps in knowledge related to animal welfare. For instance, there is still the need to understand how to measure positive welfare, or how to aggregate the different feelings and experiences that an animal feels during the different stages of life. New technologies have been proposed to monitor the welfare of animals providing more objective data, but there are still very few tools that have been validated. This Research Topic aims to collect reviews of the literature on animal welfare topics, related to all species, from companion animals to livestock, and from laboratory animals to wild animals. The invited reviews, metanalysis of the literature, should highlight the acquired knowledge and the current gaps of knowledge within this field. Our main goal is to identify which topics were devoted more scientific attention in recent years concerning animal welfare and identify which topics are still overlooked by current research.
