Despite many advances in management and housing of dairy calves, 1 in 10 US dairy heifers die before weaning. A better understanding of the internal and external stimuli that contribute to the physiological and behavioral responses of calves to stressors is needed to reduce the risk of morbidity...
Maximum immunity minimum stress mims health program for beef calvesS. L. uis D. GTaylor C. ERandolph T. CHuddleston E. MGroce A. WTyner F. H
Our long-term goal is to improve health of calves in the first 2 wk of life without the use of antibiotics to enhance feed efficiency and growth. In cattle, daily dietary supplements of n-3 fatty acids (FA) have been recognized for their influence on health (Moallem, 2018), inflammation...

To reverse the trend of declining wildlife populations globally, individuals must be provided with conditions that allow them to not just survive, but to thrive. It is no longer only the remit of captive breeding programs to ensure animal well-being; in
Stress-induced changes in immune function have been documented in cattle with alterations to cell-mediated and humoral immunity having a significant impact on immunocompetence which may increase susceptibility to disease [12–18]. Weaning, together with movement of beef calves from a pasture ...
