Abstract

In this study, it was aimed to evaluate the clinical findings and stress factors on the first day after transportation in recently weaned beef calves. In this study, 160 recently weaned male calves, which spend an average of 5-6 hours in loading, carrying, and separating into paddocks, were used. The animals included in the study consisted of Holstein breed calves between the ages of 70 and 90 days. The animals for the transportation were selected from those found to have a healthy appearance the day before the transport. In the study, anxiety was detected in the animals due to the stress they experienced while being taken to the landing ramp and paddocks at the end of the transport process.
It was determined that 64 of 160 animals had a body temperature above 39.4, and none had spontaneous cough and the droop of ears. However, a mild palpation triggered cough in 23 animals, single and / or double ocular discharge in 29 animals, and a serou-mucous nasal discharge in 19 animals. Nasal discharge, ocular discharge, and palpation induced coughing were detected in three animals, with a body temperature above 40 degrees. It was observed that the animals did not show interest in feed and water for the first 3 hours and generally tended to sternal position. It was observed that the process of getting used to eating took at least 1 week.
In conclusion, it was determined that calves that were crowding after the weaning period susceptibility to stress-related pneumonia with the transportation process. It was seen that this process should be observed very well and attention should be paid to herd observations during the acclimation period.
Sonuç olarak hayvanların sütten kesme döneminde toplulaştırma yapılan buzağıların nakil süreci ile birlikte oluşan strese bağlı pneumoniye yatkınlıklarının arttığı tespit edildi. Bu sürecin çok iyi gözlemlenmesi ve alışma dönemindeki sürü gözlemlerine önem verilmesi gerektiği görüldü.

Yeni sütten kesilmiş besi buzağılarında transport sonrası klinik gözlemler.

Abstract

Bu çalışmada yeni sütten kesilen besi buzağılarında transport sonrası ilk günkü klinik bulguların ve stres yapıcı faktörlerin değerlendirilmesi amaçlandı. Bu çalışmada araca bindirme, taşıma ve padoklara ayırma işleminde ortalama 5-6 saatlik bir süre geçiren 160 adet sütten kesme döneminde erkek buzağılar kullanıldı. Hayvanlar 70 ile 90 günlük yaş aralığındaki holştayn ırkı buzağılardan oluştu. Taşıma işlemine tabi tutulacak hayvanlar nakilden bir gün önce sağlıklı görünümde olduğu tespit edilen hayvanlardan seçildi. Çalışmaya alınan hayvanlarda nakil işlemi sonunda iniş rampasında ve padoklara alınırken yaşadıkları strese bağlı hareketlerde tedirginlik tespit edildi. 160 hayvandan 64'nün kritik sınır olarak bildirilen 39.4'ün üzerinde vücut ısısına sahip olduğu, hiçbirinde spontan öksürük ve kulaklarda düşüklük olmadığı belirlendi. Ancak 23 hayvanda hafif bir palpasyonda öksürüğün tetiklendiği, 29 hayvanda da tek ve/veya çift taraflı gözyaşı akıntısı olduğu ve 19 hayvanda da serö-müköz bir nazal akıntı varlığı tespit edildi. On üç hayvanda 40 derecenin üzerinde vücut ısısı olduğu bunların üçünde nazal akıntı, gözyaşı ve palpasyon sonrası öksürük varlığı belirlendi. Hayvanların ilk 3 saat yem ve suya ilgi göstermediği ve genelde sternal pozisyonda yatma eğiliminde olduğu görüldü. Yeme alışma süreçlerinin en az 1 hafta sürdüğü görüldü.
Sonuç olarak hayvanların sütten kesme döneminde toplulaştırma yapılan buzağıların nakil süreci ile birlikte oluşan strese bağlı pneumoniye yatkınlıklarının arttığı tespit edildi. Bu sürecin çok iyi gözlemlenmesi ve alışma dönemindeki sürü gözlemlerine önem verilmesi gerektiği görüldü.
