Effects of Toxic Fescue Exposure on Vaginal Microbial Communities of Crossbred Beef Cows [PDF]
, 2018 The consumption of toxic fescue by beef cattle results in several adverse physiological effects such as reduced reproductive success, severe vasoconstriction resulting in hoof sloughing, low body condition scores, hyperthermia, decreased prolactin levels,

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 1, January 2026.This study shows that young goats outperform sheep in the reversed‐reward contingency task, which is a cognitive test requiring both inhibitory control and cognitive flexibility. The results highlight the importance of cognitive flexibility when solving this type of task, and suggest that the differences between both species may reflect social and ...
