Civil initiative in the field of animal reproduction
Odvárková, Adéla ; Frič, Pavol (advisor) ; Císař, Ondřej (referee)
This Diploma Thesis focuses on the issue of reproduction of animals and the non- profit organisations and subjects working in this field.

The financial and human resources are mostly utilised by organisations which physically treat animals and the majority of the funds is consumed by providing care for them. On the other hand, organisations dedicated to enlightenment and education are able to function as self-funded and self-organised...
