Projektid Muu tore Minust Inimeste ja loomade vahelised suhted 2050. aasta Eestis 2025 | Spekulatiivne disain Uurisin inimeste ja loomade vahelisi suhteid aastal 2000, 2025 ja l\u00f5in tuvastatud trendide p\u00f5hjal narratiivi sellest, millised need v\u00f5iksid 2050. aastal olla. Tulemuseks disainisime tiimiga lemmiklooma v\u00f5tmise kasutajateekonna 2050. aasta Eestis ja virtuaalreaalsuse vaate loomaomaniku eksami l\u00f5pptulemusest. Meeskond Paula Maria Mengel Laura S\u00f6\u00f6t Teele Kiisk Daria Titova Anna Elisabeth Remmelg Minu roll Uurimus \u2013 taustauurimus, intervjuud, vaatlus Tulevikunarratiivi v\u00e4ljat\u00f6\u00f6tamine Veebimaketi loomine \u00a0 Etapp L\u00e4hte\u00fclesanne L\u00e4hte\u00fclesandeks saime uurida inimeste ja loomade vahelisi suhteid Eesti looduslikus ja sotsiaalpoliitilises kontekstis. Kursuse v\u00e4ltel pidime avastama ja kriitiliselt anal\u00fc\u00fcsima tuleviku inimeste ja loomade vaheliste suhetega kaasnevat vastutust, vastuolusid ja v\u00f5imalusi \u2013 ja seda k\u00f5ike tuginedes uurimusele. Protsessist t\u00e4psemalt Taustauuring Alustasime uurides j\u00e4rgnevaid inimeste ja loomade vaheliste suhetega seonduvaid teemasid: Antropomorfism, loomadele inimlike omaduste ja rollide omistamine; Loomad ebamloomulikes keskkondades \u2013 n\u00e4iteks metsloomade lemmikloomana toas pidamine; Ametiga loomad \u2013 kirjatuvid ja politseikoerad; Loomadega seotud Eesti seadused; Veterinaaria \u2013 loomade eest terviseotsuste langetamine. Esimese trendina m\u00e4rkasime, kuidas j\u00e4rjest enam v\u00f5etakse Eestis s\u00f5na selle teemal, kui lihtne siin on lemmiklooma v\u00f5tta. Loomakaitsjad kirjutavad artikleid sellest, kuidas loomade poes m\u00fc\u00fcmine on ebaeetiline. Eestis tegutsevad ka p\u00f5randaalused t\u00f5uaretajad, kes m\u00fc\u00fcvad loomi vabalt kellele iganes. Teiseks m\u00e4rkasime, et loomi v\u00f5etakse tihti impulsiivselt, sellega kaasnevat vastutust ja kohustusi korralikult l\u00e4bi m\u00f5tlemata. Maailma mastaabis on sellest heaks n\u00e4iteks see, kuidas 2020. aasta augustis v\u00f5ttis iga neljas UK kodanik kodulooma, et pandeemia ajal oma meelt lahutada. Selgus, et enamik neist ei teadnud t\u00e4pselt, mida oodata, ja see viis olukorrani, kus igap\u00e4evaselt h\u00fcljati \u00fcle 40 lemmiklooma. Sellest l\u00e4htuvalt hakkasime uurima loomade autonoomiat \u2013 kas v\u00f5ib olla, et tulevikus, kui teame loomade teadvusest ja k\u00e4itumismustritest rohkem, j\u00e4\u00e4b nende kodustamise ja ka meditsiiniliste otsuste osas neile suurem s\u00f5na\u00f5igus? Vaatlus K\u00fclastasime Tallinnas DEPO kauplust, kust on endiselt v\u00f5imalik lemmiklooma osta, et uurida, millistes tingimuses sealsed loomad elavad ja kuidas nende ostmine k\u00e4ib. M\u00e4rkasime, et loomi koheldakse pigem kui materiaalseid tooteid \u2013 n\u00e4iteks oli puuride juures silt, mis \u00fctles, et \u201ekauban\u00e4idised&#8221; pole piisavalt tugevalt kinnitatud, et seal lapsi j\u00e4relvalveta tohiks j\u00e4tta. N\u00e4gime pealt \u00fche hamstri m\u00fc\u00fcmist, kes pandi pisikesse t\u00fchja suletud pappkarpi, mis teibiga kinni t\u00f5mmati. Klientidele looma eest hoolitsemise osas n\u00f5u ei antud. J\u00e4lgisime ka m\u00f6\u00f6duvate inimeste reaktsioone loomade elutingimustele ja tegime seal pikalt m\u00e4rkmeid. Panin t\u00e4hele seda, kuidas paljud t\u00f5id kehvi tingimusi v\u00e4lja, kuid kui seda tegid lapsed, lohutasid vanemad neid ja kinnitasid, et nii pisikestel loomadel polegi rohkem ruumi vaja. Intervjuud Vastupidiselt sellele, r\u00e4\u00e4kis Varjupaikade MT\u00dc kommunikatsioonijuht meile intervjuus, kuidas nad p\u00fc\u00fcavad varjupaiga k\u00fclastajaid loomaarsti hindadest ja looma v\u00f5tmisega kaasnevatest kohustustest r\u00e4\u00e4kides \u201eminema hirmutada,&#8221; et tuvastada t\u00f5eliselt hoolivaid omanikke. Saime teada, et enamasti, kui loom neile tagastatakse, on p\u00f5hjuseks avastus, et looma iseloom ei sobi omaniku omaga, v\u00f5i ootamatult v\u00e4ljal\u00f6\u00f6nud allergia. Looma v\u00f5tmise protsessiga seotud Eesti seadused ja regulatsioonid muutuvad j\u00e4rjest rangemaks ning Varjupaikade MT\u00dcs usutakse ja loodetakse, et see j\u00e4tkub samamoodi. Intervjueerisime ka Pesaleidja kaudu hoiukodu pakkuvat inimest, kes r\u00e4\u00e4kis, et uute omanike leidmine k\u00e4ib v\u00e4ga ettevaatlikult ning nad valitakse individuaalselt ja hoolikalt, et teha kindlaks, et loomade eest hoolitsetaks h\u00e4sti. STEEP+V Anal\u00fc\u00fcs Vaatasime inimeste-loomade suhetele 2000., 2025. ja 2050. aasta kontekstis j\u00e4rgnevate valdkondade kontekstis: S \u2013 Society T \u2013 Technology E \u2013 Economy E \u2013 Environment P \u2013 Politics V \u2013 Values Olulisimad j\u00e4reldused, milleni selle meetodi toel j\u00f5udsime: Lemmiklooma v\u00f5tmine on aeglaselt, kuid stabiilselt keerulisemaks muutumas. Seadused muutuvad tasapisi rangemaks ja looma v\u00f5tmine on \u00fcha reguleeritum. Praegused trendid n\u00e4itavad, et tulevikus v\u00f5ivad eksisteerida sotsiaalmeedia platvormid, mis v\u00f5imaldavad inimesi lihtsamini nende iseloomu ja elustiiliga sobivate loomadega kokku viia. Arvestades meie laienevaid teadmisi loomade teadvuse kohta, on loomadel tulevikus praegusest rohkem \u00f5igusi ja neile v\u00f5imaldatakse koduloomadena k\u00f5rgemat autonoomiat. Fookuse paika panemine Uurimuse leidude p\u00f5hjal otsustasime seada oma fookuseks omanike kokkuviimise nende iseloomu ja eluviisiga sobivate loomadega, et v\u00e4ltida loomade v\u00e4\u00e4rkohtlemist, h\u00fclgamist ja varjupaikadesse tagastamist. Seniste trendide p\u00f5hjal valitakse lemmikloomi tihti esteetilistel ning meelelahutuslikel kaalutlustel, mis viib olukordadeni, kus omanik ei hoolitse looma eest vastavalt looma vajadustele. Arvestades seaduste j\u00e4rjepidevat karmistumist spekuleerisime, et 2050. aastaks on otsitud viise, kuidas seda probleemi lahendada. Mis-siis-kui k\u00fcsimus Fookusest l\u00e4htuvalt asusime otsima oma mis-siis-kui k\u00fcsimust. Olime pikalt mitme variandi vahel, kuni j\u00f5udsime kombinatsioonini, mis oli piisavalt provokatiivne ning trendidele toetudes realistlik, et seda uurides edasi liikuda. &#8220;What if regulations of getting a pet would become stricter to guarantee compatibility between pets and owners to avoid abandonment and abuse?&#8221; Narratiivi loomine Hakkasime arutlema, milline oleks maailm meie mis-siis-kui k\u00fcsimuse \u00fcmber. Ideetamiseks kasutasime\u00a0Futures Wheel meetodit ehk hakkasime oma k\u00fcsimuse \u00fcmber kogume ideid sellest, millised tagaj\u00e4rjed sellel olla v\u00f5iksid.\u00a0 Kerkisid esile m\u00f5ned huvitavad m\u00f5tted: Maailm, kus tuleb lemmiklooma v\u00f5tmiseks luba teha J\u00f5udsime narratiivini, et 2050. aastal v\u00f5ib olla nii, et lemmiklooma v\u00f5tmiseks tuleb teha luba. Meie tuleviku maailmas tuleb lemmiklooma v\u00f5tmiseks l\u00e4bida pikaajaline ja kallis kursus, mille k\u00e4igus \u00f5pitakse kindla liigi ja t\u00f5u kohta kuidas looma eest hoolitseda, kuidas talle esmaabi pakkuda, kuidas teda toita ja igal vajalikul viisil toetada. Kursus kulmineerub kaheosalise eksamiga liitreaalsuses: osa leiab aset eksamineeritava kodustes tingimustes. Liitreaalsuses ilmub tuppa soovitud loom ning simuleeritakse erinevaid rohkem ja v\u00e4hem pingelisi olukordi. osa leiab aset \u00f5ues, kus eksamineeritaval tuleb samamoodi erinevates simuleeritud olukordades loomaga hakkama saada. Eksami v\u00e4ltel m\u00f5\u00f5detakse pea k\u00fclge kleebitud pisikese neuroseadmega eksamineeritava emotsioone. Empaatiav\u00f5ime hindamiseks v\u00f5rreldakse m\u00f5\u00f5detud emotsioonide intensiivsust Ideaalse Loomaomaniku Profiiliga, et teha kindlaks, kas eksamineeritava emotsioonid on kogetavate olukordadega vastavuses.&nbsp; Tulemus s\u00f5ltub ka eksamineeritava tervisen\u00e4itajatest, majanduslikust olukorrast ja elustiilist. Kui eksam edukalt l\u00e4bitakse, v\u00f5ib selle looma v\u00f5tta.
