Abstract

This series of experiments was undertaken to develop a low animal impact, inexpensive and simple method of continuous logging of body temperature in free-ranging adult cattle for periods up to 7 days. Two different types of logger (iButton and Vemco minilogger) and three different methods of attachment (surgical implant, anal girth strap and anal tail attachment) for the iButton were investigated. The technique based on the iButton temperature logger, secured to the tail head was the most effective. This technique required minimal animal handling and provided reliable and accurate measurement of temperature in freely behaving cattle.

开发和验证一种简单的技术来记录自由放养的牛的体温
进行这一系列实验是为了开发一种低动物影响、廉价和简单的方法,在长达7天的时间内连续记录自由放养的成年牛的体温。研究了iButton的两种不同类型的记录仪(iButton和Vemco迷你记录仪)和三种不同的附着方法(手术植入、肛门环带和肛门尾附着)。基于iButton温度记录仪的技术,固定在尾头是最有效的。这项技术需要最小的动物操作,并提供可靠和准确的温度测量自由行为的牛。
