Abstract(s)
Perante o progresso da agricultura e os avanços na zootecnia, a profissão de veterinário rural está a
evoluir, assim como as suas responsabilidades. Utilizando o exemplo das raças bovinas Holstein frisia
e Blanc-Bleu Belge, pretende demonstrar-se o papel das biotecnologias reprodutivas e das práticas de
maneio na evolução genética dos bovinos e o seu impacto do ponto de vista zootécnico e de bem estar animal. Esta revisão apoia-se em noções de filosofia moral, de ética normativa e de bioética,
colocando o médico veterinário como um ator central entre os animais, os criadores e a sociedade em
geral. Através de uma abordagem multidisciplinar, este trabalho pretende salientar a importância de
uma medicina veterinária ética e reflexiva, empenhada em melhorar continuamente as condições de
vida dos animais de produção, respondendo simultaneamente às necessidades produtivas, sociais e
ambientais de um sector agro-pecuário moderno.
