Wildlife journal corrects papers missing animal ethics statements
Original: Wildlife journal issues corrections for missing ethics statements
A wildlife research journal has issued corrections to multiple papers that were published without the required animal ethics statements, following scrutiny of its publishing standards. The corrections formally note that studies involving wild animals lacked documentation of ethical review. It is not yet clear how many papers were affected or whether any studies were later found to breach animal welfare rules.
Why now: Retraction Watch's coverage of the corrections has drawn attention to research ethics in wildlife studies.
