The Impacts of Drought on the Health and Demography of Eastern Grey Kangaroos
Animals, 2022 Extreme climatic events such as droughts and floods are expected to become more intense and severe under climate change, especially in the southern and eastern parts of Australia. We aimed to quantify the relationship between body condition scores (BCS),

Body Condition Assessment Using Digital Images [PDF]
Journal of Dairy Science, 2006 This project assessed the ability to assign a body condition score (BCS) to a dairy cow from digital photographs or videos. Images were taken from the rear of the cow at a 0 to 20 degrees angle relative to the tail head. Four observers assigned a BCS to each of 57 cows at a farm visit (live, farm 1) and later from a photograph (photo).

Heritability and Correlations Among Body Condition Score Loss, Body Condition Score, Production and Reproductive Performance [PDF]
Journal of Dairy Science, 2002 The objectives of this study were to estimate the heritability of body condition score loss (BCSL) in early lactation and estimate genetic and phenotypic correlations among BCSL, body condition score (BCS), production, and reproductive performance. Body condition scores at calving and postpartum, mature equivalents for milk, fat and protein yield, days

Body condition and indicators of energy status of cows in advanced gravidity and early stage of lactation [PDF]
Veterinarski Glasnik, 2010 The objective of the investigations was to establish the validity of certain metabolic and endocrine indicators of energy metabolism in comparison with the body condition of cows during the final stage of pregnancy and the early stage of lactation.
