Exploration of known stereotypic behaviour-related candidate genes in equine crib-biting

open access: yesAnimal, 2014
Crib-biting in horses is a stereotypic oral behaviour. Genetic susceptibility has been suggested on a causal basis, together with environmental factors such as stress, gastric discomfort and frustration caused by stall restrictions.

Survival and Food Detection by First-Instar \u3ci\u3eMelanoplus Femurrubrum\u3c/i\u3e (Orthoptera: Acrididae) [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Newly hatched Melanoplus femurrubrum (DeGeer) were evaluated for survival without food under various moisture, temperature, and light conditions. Although nymphs survived up to 113 h without food, they required food 48-W h after hatching to ensure ...

Long‐term shifts in the seasonal abundance of adult Culicoides biting midges and their impact on potential arbovirus outbreaks

open access: yesJournal of Applied Ecology, 2019
Surveillance of adult Culicoides biting midge flight activity is used as an applied ecological method to guide the management of arbovirus incursions on livestock production in Europe and Australia. To date the impact of changes in the phenology of adult

Characteristics of biter and victim piglets apparent before a tail biting outbreak [PDF]

open access: yes
Little is known about the characteristics of biters and victims before the appearance of a tail-biting outbreak in groups of pigs. This study aimed to characterise biters and victims (according to gender and performance) and to quantify their behavioural

Multi-Step Tail Biting Outbreak Intervention Protocols for Pigs Housed on Slatted Floors

open access: yesAnimals, 2019
Simple Summary Tail biting is an unpredictable and costly damaging behaviour among pigs that causes painful injuries. A major concern of the industry is how to control tail biting outbreaks when they occur. We aimed to evaluate the effectiveness of three
