Animal Welfare Policy
(Animal Welfare)

MOFF Corporation has established its own company-specific breeding standards based on the concept of animal welfare in order to provide an environment where all animals can live healthily.

Based on animal health indicators and behavioral data, we continually propose and review improvements to the animal care environment, and use this information as operational guidelines for each facility.

Veterinarian system and medical support

To supervise animal health management at a corporate level, we have an in-house veterinarian on-site at all times, and two external consulting veterinarians make regular visits and provide guidance.
The facility also has a clinic equipped with various medical and testing equipment, including X-ray machines, to ensure prompt and appropriate diagnosis and treatment. This allows for systematic and continuous medical support, from daily health management to emergency response.

Hygiene management and infection control measures

We operate in accordance with hygiene management guidelines to minimize risks related to hygiene and safety. We provide employee training to develop personnel who can support animal welfare and hygiene management, and not only do we assign an animal handling manager, but we also ensure that the entire company maintains a certain level of specialized knowledge and skills.

Legal compliance and risk management system

To fulfill our social responsibility as an animal business, we strictly comply with laws and regulations related to Type 1 animal handling businesses (exhibition, sales, storage, and rental), respond to audits and on-site inspections by local governments, conduct internal audits, and systematically manage improvement cycles.

Cooperation and information sharing with other parks and aquariums

Some of the facilities operated by MOFF Corporation are members of the Japan Association of Zoos and Aquariums (JAZA) and the Japan Aquarium Association (JAA), and are part of a network of zoos and aquariums across the country.
By exchanging information and sharing opinions on animal husbandry techniques, animal medical care, breeding and behavioral knowledge, we aim to achieve a higher standard of animal welfare and facility management.
