Journal Title：Animals

Animals (ISSN 2076-2615) is an international and interdisciplinary scholarly open access journal. It publishes original research articles, reviews, communications, and short notes that are relevant to any field of study that involves animals, including zoology, ethnozoology, animal science, animal ethics and animal welfare. However, preference will be given to those articles that provide an understanding of animals within a larger context (i.e., the animals' interactions with the outside world, including humans). There is no restriction on the length of the papers. Our aim is to encourage scientists to publish their experimental and theoretical research in as much detail as possible. Full experimental details and/or method of study, must be provided for research articles. Articles submitted that involve subjecting animals to unnecessary pain or suffering will not be accepted, and all articles must be submitted with the necessary ethical approval (please refer to the Ethical Guidelines for more information).

《動物》（ISSN 2076-2615）是一本國際性和跨學(xué)科的學(xué)術(shù)性開放獲取期刊。它發(fā)表原創(chuàng)研究文章、評論、通訊和簡短筆記，這些文章與涉及動物的任何研究領(lǐng)域相關(guān)，包括動物學(xué)、民族動物學(xué)、動物科學(xué)、動物倫理和動物福利。但是，我們會優(yōu)先考慮那些在更大背景下提供對動物理解的文章（即動物與外界（包括人類）的互動）。論文的長度沒有限制。我們的目標是鼓勵科學(xué)家盡可能詳細地發(fā)表他們的實驗和理論研究。研究文章必須提供完整的實驗細節(jié)和/或研究方法。涉及讓動物遭受不必要的痛苦或折磨的文章將不被接受，所有文章都必須獲得必要的倫理批準（請參閱道德準則了解更多信息）。

Animals創(chuàng)刊于2011年，由MDPI (Basel, Switzerland)出版商出版，收稿方向涵蓋Agricultural and Biological Sciences - Animal Science and Zoology全領(lǐng)域，此刊是該細分領(lǐng)域中屬于非常不錯的SCI期刊，在行業(yè)細分領(lǐng)域中學(xué)術(shù)影響力較大，專業(yè)度認可很高，所以對原創(chuàng)文章要求創(chuàng)新性較高，如果您的文章質(zhì)量很高，可以嘗試。平均審稿速度約20.52天 11 Weeks ，影響因子指數(shù)2.7，該期刊近期沒有被列入國際期刊預(yù)警名單，廣大學(xué)者值得一試。
