What is the first of the Five Freedoms for animal welfare?

From discomfort
From hunger and thirst
From pain, injury, or disease
From fear and distress

The correct answer is: From hunger and thirst

The first of the Five Freedoms for animal welfare is centered around ensuring that animals are free from hunger and thirst. This principle emphasizes the importance of providing adequate access to clean water and a balanced diet suited to the species and individual needs of the animals. Ensuring that animals do not suffer from hunger and thirst is fundamental to their well-being. It forms the basis for a supportive environment where their other needs can also be met. This freedom is essential as it lays the groundwork for an animal's overall health and quality of life, affecting their physical condition and ability to thrive. Understanding this freedom is crucial for animal control officers, as it reflects the fundamental ethical considerations in animal care and welfare standards.
