Animal quarantine is a process used to isolate animals that may carry diseases or parasites. This helps prevent the spread of infections to other animals and humans. Quarantine is often required for animals that are imported from different countries or regions, ensuring they are healthy before entering a new environment. During quarantine, animals are monitored for signs of illness and may undergo testing. The duration of quarantine can vary depending on the species and the potential risks involved. This practice is essential for protecting public health and maintaining the well-being of domestic and wild animal populations.
