Animal Science was the main journal of the British Society of Animal Science between 1959 and 2007, when it was merged with two other journals to become Animal - A major new International Journal of Animal Bioscience.
The journal focused on the fields of animal science, animal biology and animal production.
In 1959 the society established the journal as Animal Production. It was published in three issues per year in 1961, and four issues per year in 1971. In 1995, the journal was retitled to be Animal Science.[1][2]
In 2000, the senior editor Tony Lawrence retired, with Hilary Davies taking over the role.[3]
