ATS animal handling gloves are made with high quality leather with a kevlar lined sleeve and back-hand protector. These gloves provide protection all the way from hand to elbow, yet still allow dexterity by utlizing a small gap in the kevlar lining at the wrist. This is an excellent choice for handling animals who are both scared and aggressive, or docile yet timid. Although these gloves provide superior protection from scratches and bites, they, like all animal handling gloves, should be considered bite resistatnt, not bite proof.
