Veterinarios de Aichi prestan conejillos de indias a las escuelas

Los veterinarios de Aichi están prestando conejillos de indias a las escuelas para estancias de corta duración con el fin de aliviar la carga que suponen las mascotas en el aula. Dado que cada vez más escuelas optan por no tener animales, esta iniciativa ofrece lecciones prácticas sobre la vida, informó The Japan Times.

Los veterinarios de la prefectura de Aichi han comenzado a prestar conejillos de indias a las escuelas para un uso educativo de corta duración. A medida que más centros educativos deciden no tener mascotas en el aula, los veterinarios reducen esta carga proporcionando los animales de forma temporal.

El programa tiene como objetivo impartir lecciones prácticas sobre la vida y la responsabilidad. Las escuelas toman prestados los conejillos de indias por periodos limitados, lo que permite a los estudiantes aprender a través de la alimentación y el cuidado de los mismos. Los veterinarios se encargan de los controles de salud y del cuidado posterior a su devolución.

Según The Japan Times, la tendencia de evitar tener mascotas en el aula se debe a la carga de trabajo de los profesores y a la preocupación por las alergias. Este servicio de préstamo permite a las escuelas continuar con la educación basada en los animales sin necesidad de compromisos a largo plazo.
