Effects of Animal Transport Stress and Its Prevention and Control Measures
The stress refers to the sum of the non-specific response reactions generated by the animal body to the ultra-abnormal stimulation of internal or external stimuli.The stress has two-way nature and is divided into compliance and reverse stress.It is favorable to enhance the defense capacity of the body.It is harmful to the changes in the environmental imbalance,physiology,biochemistry,immune,and behavior in the animal body.The stress reaction is usually referred to as reverse stress,and transportation stress is a common reverse stress in daily life.The main causes include:mutations,hunger thirst,noise,heat stress,and other incentives of the living environment.Due to the influence of transportation stress,animals have affected production performance,and severe cases lead to a large area of animal death.In order to reduce animal transport stress,a series of prevention and control measures must be taken in time.It mainly enhances daily breeding management and doing a good job of transportation before,middle,and post-related transportation.Stress handling work,reducing the source of animal stress through multiple ways and multiple ways,which may minimize economic losses caused by stress.
