"This book presents five chapters describing the characteristics and behaviors of Bubalus bubalis, or domestic water buffalo. Chapter One provides an update on recent developments in the approaches for estrus detection in buffalo. Chapter Two explains the pelvimetry of the female buffalo reproductive system and the biometry of the reproductive system of male and female buffaloes. Chapter Three assesses the effect of slow-release subcutaneous exogenous melatonin implant on hematological profiles, endocrinological profiles, biochemical profiles and antioxidant and oxidative stress profiles in anestrus buffalo cows during the summer season to improve reproductive efficiency. Chapter Four consists of a study of Andaman local buffaloes that may serve as the reference values in which alterations due to metabolic, nutrient deficiency, physiological and health status can be compared for diagnostic and therapeutic purposes. Lastly, Chapter Five focuses mainly on the impact of heat stress on buffalo's behavior, physiology, metabolism, and acclimatization"--

Covering all thirteen species of wild cattle, Ecology, Evolution and Behaviour of Wild Cattle brings together the contributions of international leading experts on the biology, evolution, conservation status and management of the tribe Bovini, providing: • A comprehensive review of current knowledge on systematic, anatomy and ecology of all wild cattle species (chapters 1 to 8); • A clear understanding of the conservation status of each species and the gaps in our current knowledge (chapters 9 to 20); • A number of case studies on conservation activities and an investigation of some of the most threatened and poorly understood species (chapters 21 to 27). An invaluable resource for students, researchers, and professionals in behavioural ecology, evolutionary biology and conservation biology, this beautifully illustrated reference work reveals the extraordinary link between wild cattle and humans, the benefits some of these species have brought us, and their key roles in their natural ecosystems.

Manage the health of cattle at a critical stage with this essential reference Milk is one of the backbones of the global food economy, with its high vitamin content and key contribution to bone health. As a result, dairy farming is one of the most essential sectors of the global agricultural market, and the health of cattle is an issue of global importance. Periparturient diseases, those sustained in the period immediately before, during, and after giving birth, have a potentially devastating impact on the reproductive cycle of cattle, and an understanding of these conditions is a critical aspect of food production. Periparturient Diseases of Cattle offers a comprehensive overview of these diseases, their pathogenesis, and their treatments. Summarizing all of the major periparturient disorders, their etiology, and their management, it is a critical resource for veterinary practitioners and others for whom cattle health is of fundamental importance. As a reference, a diagnostic aid, and a tool in farm management, this volume is indispensable. Periparturient Diseases of Cattle readers will also find: In-depth description of disease advancement Detailed treatment of disorders including metritis, mastitis, ketosis, and many more Color figures and line drawings to illustrate key concepts Periparturient Diseases of Cattle is ideal for student and working veterinarians, academicians, farm managers, industrialists, farm owners, and many more.

Cattle are one of our major domesticated animals, a higher mammal with complex mental and physical needs. The benefit of a knowledge of cattle behaviour means veterinarians and stockpeople can recognise abnormal behaviour signs for disease diagnosis and indication of an inadequate environment. This book replaces the book Cattle Behaviour, written by the same author and published by Farming Press in 1993. The text has been revised and updated and four new chapters on cattle welfare have been added. The main interest of many reading a book on behaviour is its relation to the welfare of the species, so the combination of welfare and behaviour is a logical one.
