The study of farm animal behaviour often relies on labour‐intensive observations, which can be impractical in extensive systems. Advances in technology (e.g. accelerometers and global positioning satellite (GPS) devices) can be used to record behaviours frequently, long‐term and remotely. Monitoring behaviour of livestock, in combination with other key

Maternal behaviour and lamb survival: from neuroendocrinology to practical application*
Parental care promotes offspring survival and, for livestock species, this care is provided solely by the mother. Maternal behaviour in the sheep has been exceptionally well-studied compared with other species and many of the underpinning biological ...

The Ontogenetic Development of Rapid Eye Movement Sleep in Early Life and Its Regulatory Mechanisms
REM sleep was first identified in humans and cats in the late 1950s and exhibits a conserved developmental trajectory across species. This study elucidates key characteristic changes during REM sleep development, thereby providing a foundation for improving the prevention and treatment of various neurodevelopmental disorders.

Influence of ewe feeding systems on carcass quality of suckling lambs
Numerous studies have evidenced significant differences in the carcass and meat quality of grass-fed and concentrate-fed lambs. The main differences regard carcass fatness (Murphy et al., 1994), subcutaneous fat colour (Prache and Theriez, 1999), meat ...
