Stillbirth in Dairy Cattle
Lucrări ştiinţifice Zootehnie şi Biotehnologii, vol. 42 (2) (2009), Timişoara
Introduction
Two of the most larges problem at dairy farm level is calving complications and
stillborn calves. Heifers and cows that go through a difficult calving tend to have
impaired health, fertility, and production in the following lactation. Death of the
calf or its dam can also occur, and calving difficulty or dystocia is a leading cause
of stillbirths. In certain cases some of normal-sized calves being born without
complications are also stillborn or die shortly after delivery. There are substantial
variation between sire families for both the direct (sire of calf) and maternal (sire of
cow) aspects of calving difficulty and stillbirth rate. Obviously, dystocia and high
stillbirth rate is unacceptable from ethical as well as animal welfare and
economical point of view. The most stressful part of a cow’s life cycle is the
calving process and its postpartum aftermath. Thus, postnatal mortality of calves is
not only costly for cattle producers, but it is also a problem for animal welfare and
health. Concerns of on the related issue have been increasing.

The Camel Book
Introduction:
This book has been written for Indigenous communities
in central Australia. It has been designed for use by
Indigenous community rangers, educators working with
schools and ranger groups, and land management
agencies working with communities. Other landowners,
users and managers in central Australia may also find
the book useful.
Some people think there are too many camels on country
and they are causing a lot of damage. Others feel
differently. This book attempts to present the range
of views of people in central Australia and offer some
ideas for managing camels in desert country.
In preparing this book, Tangentyere Landcare staff met
with land owners, camel industry advisors and scientists.
We have tried to present cultural and scientific
experiences of camels in central Australia. Thankyou
to everyone who shared their ideas, photographs and
time in discussion and review of the book.
This book can be used as a resource to facilitate
discussion and planning for camel management. It is
one step in the process of different groups working
together to better understand the effects of camels
in desert country.
