Recording Wildlife in Their Natural Habitat or in Captivity

Registered Assistance Dogs will normally be allowed access to most areas of the BBC but those responsible for bringing any animals on to BBC-controlled sites must first obtain clearance from premises management.

Some pets present a negligible risk - domestic cats, dogs, rabbits and guinea pigs for example. "Tame" or "semi-tame" animals may, however, still cause injuries - people expect them to be safe, and the animals have less fear of people. There are also a number of people who are allergic to animals. Any arrangements must take account of the affect on those who may have an allergic reaction.
