Effect of supplementary feeding on the production traits, carcass and meat quality of Jamuna basin lambs. [PDF]
This study aimed to identify the optimum level of supplementary feeds on the carcass traits and meat quality of Jamuna basin lambs. Forty selected lambs were divided into four treatments such as T0 (no concentrate supplementation), T1 (1% concentrate ...

Supplementary feeding restructures urban bird communities. [PDF]
Significance Bird feeding is essentially a massive global supplementary feeding experiment, yet few studies have attempted to explore its ecological effects. In this study we use an in situ experimental approach to investigate the impacts of bird feeding on the structure of local bird assemblages.

Supplementary feeding of cattle-yak in the cold season alters rumen microbes, volatile fatty acids, and expression of SGLT1 in the rumen epithelium. [PDF]
Cattle-yak, a hybrid offspring of yak (Bos grunniens) and cattle (Bos taurus), inhabit the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau at an altitude of more than 3,000 m and obtain nutrients predominantly through grazing on natural pastures.

Effects of Mobile Sheepfold and Supplementary Feeding on Growth Performance, Serum Indicators and Gut Microbiota in Natural Grazing Gangba Sheep [PDF]
High-altitude grazing animals are continuously exposed to strong wind and low temperature, which challenge physiological homeostasis and energy metabolism. Improving living conditions and nutritional supplementation are two commonly used strategies.
