The objective of this research is to investigate how school-owned animals affect man's or woman's sense of animals. We constructed questionnaires directed toward junior high school students, their parents, and teachers in Japan. The responses were statistically analyzed based on multivariate analysis (Hayashi's Quantification Methods type III). The analysis extracted six available axes, in particular, the axis 1 (illustrating discrimination; 'curious toward animal-less interest to animal') significantly related to gender, region and position (student, parent or teacher) on one-way ANOVA (p0.0083). In conclusion, there's a possibility that we could propose the management and choice of species of school animals or companion animals in the near future.
