Effect of season and stocking density during transport on carcass and meat quality of suckling lambs [PDF]
Many factors related to transport to abattoir affects meat quality, but scarce information is available in suckling lambs. Thus, the aim of this work was to evaluate the effects of season and stocking density on carcass and meat quality of suckling lambs

An Economic and Environmental Analysis of Virtual Fencing for Precision Grazing
ABSTRACT The UK grazing livestock sector is challenged by declining farm profitability and stringent environmental policy. Innovative technologies such as virtual fencing could enable a balanced economic and environmental performance of beef production. Virtual fencing is a livestock management tool relying on invisible boundaries perceived as auditory,

Effect of fat levels in early phase on growth performance and meat characteristics in twin lambs
This experiment aims to study the effects of dietary fat level during the suckling period on growth performance and meat characteristics in twin lambs. Thirty pairs of male twin Hu lambs were divided into two groups, namely high fat (HF) and normal fat ...

Early insulin release following suckling in neonatal lambs and rabbits [PDF]
Developmental changes in the plasma insulin response to milk ingestion have been determined in neonatal lambs fed by bottle and in naturally suckled infant rabbits. In lambs at 4 days of age and older plasma insulin increased within 5 min of suckling and declined again before increasing to a second peak 60 to 120 min after the feed.

Cervical ectopia cordis in a Whitebred Shorthorn cross calf
Abstract A 10‐day‐old male Whitebred Shorthorn cross calf presented with a large, pulsatile, cervical mass extending from the mandible to the thoracic inlet, present since birth. The calf was bright and eating, with intermittent coughing. Clinical examination and cervical ultrasonography identified the mass as an ectopically positioned heart (cervical ...

Glucose, protein and energy metabolism in suckling and ruminating lambs [PDF]
Ruminant lambs were compared with suckling lambs, pair-fed to equal digestible energy intakes. Studies were made of glucose entry rate, by continuous infusion of D-[U-¹⁴C] glucose, protein synthesis, by continuous infusion of L-[side chain-2, 3-³H ...

Seasonal variation in the fatty acid profile in meat of Sarda suckling lambs
This study evaluated temporal changes in fatty acid (FA) composition of meat from Sarda suckling lambs reared in Sardinia, with emphasis on polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFA) and conjugated linoleic acid (CLA).
