Rate My Professor Emma Dunston-Clarke

Dr Dunston-Clarke's career has centered on advancing livestock welfare through empirical research and industry collaboration. Key publications include 'Brush Use in Lot-Fed Cattle Shows Continued Use and Positive Behaviour' (Animals, 2025, co-authored with C. Stockman et al.), examining environmental enrichment; 'Application of a welfare assessment protocol for Australian lot-fed cattle' (2024, with E. Taylor et al.); 'Developing a welfare assessment protocol for Australian lot-fed cattle' (Frontiers in Animal Science, 2023); 'Uterine tube resection by vaginotomy as an alternative to ovariectomy in mature cattle' (Animals, 2023, with P.C. Irons et al.); and 'Developing an Animal Welfare Assessment Protocol for Livestock Transported by Sea' (Animals, 2020, cited over 37 times). These contributions have influenced welfare protocols for feedlot cattle and sea-transported livestock, including studies on exercise enrichment and brush usage behaviours. She supervises research projects, such as Angus Foundation grants on cattle welfare, and participates in educational initiatives like the South-West WA Drought Hub to foster industry-ready graduates.
