High physiological demands in intensively raised pigs: impact on health and welfare.
Genetic selection and better control of the environment of the pigs have resulted in increased production levels concerning both reproduction and growth. Such high performances imply high physiological demands that may deteriorate health and welfare. The aims of this paper are to review the physiological challenges that pigs are facing, to identify possible consequences on health and welfare, t...
متن کاملThe physiological and behavioral response of pigs castrated with and without anesthesia or analgesia.
Surgical castration is a common management practice performed on male pigs to prevent the occurrence of boar taint. Surgical castration is known to cause physiological and behavioral changes in pigs indicative of pain-induced distress; however, it is commonly performed without pain relief. The objective of this study was to evaluate the effectiveness of carbon dioxide gas (CO(2)) anesthesia and...
متن کاملa comparison of teachers and supervisors, with respect to teacher efficacy and reflection
supervisors play an undeniable role in training teachers, before starting their professional experience by preparing them, at the initial years of their teaching by checking their work within the proper framework, and later on during their teaching by assessing their progress. but surprisingly, exploring their attributes, professional demands, and qualifications has remained a neglected theme i...
15 صفحه اولEvaluation of environmental heat stress on physiological parameters
Background Thermal component of the atmospheric environment is an important issue which is related to human's health. Thermal environment includes both heat exchange conditions (stress) and the physiological response (strain). The aim of this study was to measure the association of heat indices (PSI, HSI, Humidex) especially subjective one (STI) with some physiological parameters (Blood pressur...
متن کاملEffect of Rearing Environment and Environmental Enrichment on the Behavior of Neural Development of Young Pigs
There has been increasing societal concern about the welfare of farm animals residing in certain modern systems which provide less varied sensory input than natural surroundings (Harrison, 1964; Singer, 1976; Hason and Singer, 1980; Fox, 1984). Environmental complexity affects both central nervous system anatomical development and behavior (Bennett et al., 1964; Diamond et al., 1964; Greenough ...
