Although there are few reports on the use of targeted proteomics in domestic animals, there is potential and a need for wider application in farm animals such as dairy cattle and poultry. Here, it can revolutionise disease monitoring, nutritional assessment, and breeding strategies by allowing prec...
Named after the Irish county of its birth, this one-time farm dog is now an alert, adaptable, and animated watchdog and family companion. Bonus: This breed does not shed, allowing it to be tolerated by many people with pet allergies. #41. Keeshond (tie) Terri Brown // Wikimedia ...
There is a deep literature on visual cognition and spatial orientation in chickens (including young chicks) that demonstrates they are capable of such visual feats as completion of visual occlusion, biological motion perception, and object and spatial (even geometric) representations. One of the cogni...
Finally, the authors have applied a clustering algorithm to the mapped object representations in the top view to fuse the information from multiple cameras. Wang et al. have obtained a distance error of 0.019 in normalized coordinates on their dataset. These research works are very ingenious at ...
It has been argued that these technologies are allowing farmers to build “digital representations” of their animals (Norton et al., 2019). While the realization of a similar smart zoo concept is likely to be some years away, the recent study by Zuerl et al. [47] developed algorithms ...
