Animal therapy proving to be a success with autism | 60 Minutes Australia
Jul 06 2023
If you've got the family dog or cat at your feet right now, you probably know how the companionship of animals can make life more bearable. Research has proven that pets can enhance lonely lives, and even have medical benefits for hospital patients. But the bond of a faithful animal is also proving a godsend to children who suffer autism - not only calming behaviour but perhaps unlocking parts of their brain and enabling them to learn and communicate better. Sounds incredible even to scientists trying to fathom why. But the results show, families at their wits end whose lives have been turned by the animals they love.
For over forty years, 60 Minutes have been telling Australians the world’s greatest stories. Tales that changed history, our nation and our lives. Reporters Liz Hayes, Tom Steinfort, Tara Brown, Nick McKenzie and Amelia Adams look past the headlines because there is always a bigger picture. Sundays are for 60 Minutes.
