Abstract:
Six potential methods for fostering lambs were investigated. Three involved transferring soft paraffin, dilute detergent solution or a hessian coat from a ewe's own lamb to a potential foster lamb. The effectiveness of placing own lamb's wool in a mask worn by the foster ewe was also tested, together with washing lambs in detergent solution. In the sixth procedure, untreated foster lambs were merely confined with the foster ewe. The first 3 methods, which attempted to transfer odour between lambs were 80-93% successful, and transfer of soft paraffin and coats resulted in earlier acceptance of alien lambs than complete washing or confinement alone. The effectiveness of a ewe mask containing own lamb's wool was intermediate. The initial application of soft paraffin, prior to transfer, also appeared to increase the attractiveness of alien lambs to ewes. Some flock differences in ease of fostering were encountered.

Abstract:
A quantitation of IgG was made, using R.I.D test, in blood sera of 15 newborn iambs. The quantity of IgG was measured in time intervals immediately after birth and before suckling till 168th hour after birth. Two lambs out of 15 have detectable amount of IgG in their sera before suckling. The maximum concentration of IgG in 11 lambs sera was measured 24 hours, in 3 lambs sera 36 hours, and in 1 lamb's serum 48 hours after birth, respectively. In three lambs out of 15, a percentage of 20%, the serum concentration of IgG was less than 30 mg/ml. One of these lambs died and another got ill 120 hours after birth.

Abstract:
Abstract The objective of this study was to evaluate the effect of supplementing polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFA), methionine (M) or both to ewes during late gestation on offspring growth, dry matter intake (DMI), carcass composition, and glucose and insulin metabolism (by conducting a glucose tolerance test (GTT)). Seventy-two post-weaned lambs (6 pens/treatment, 3 lambs/pen) born from ewes supplemented from gestation day 100 until lambing were used. Dam supplementation was: 1) no PUFA nor M supplementation (NFA-NM); 2) supplementation with PUFA (PUFA-NM, 1 % StrataG113); 3) supplementation with M (NFA-MET, 0.1 % rumen protected methionine, Smartamine); and 4) supplementation with PUFA and M (PUFA-MET). At weaning (60 days of age) lambs were fed a common finishing diet for 54 days, and DMI was measured daily. Lambs were weighed on weaning day (d0), d28, and d54. Twenty-four lambs (one per pen) were used for a GTT on d55. On d56, other 24 lambs were harvested for carcass characteristics measurements. Offspring data was analyzed as a 2x2x2 factorial (FA, M, and sex). Ewe supplementation affected (P < 0.1) lamb DMI. On d54 lambs born from No FA and methionine showed a greater DMI. There was a tendency for plasma glucose concentration for PUFA*MET*Time (P = 0.07) in the GGT. Lambs born from ewes supplemented with methionine had greater glucose concentration than NFA-NM born lambs, and lambs born from PUFA*MET had greater glucose concentration than the other lambs at 2m of the GGT. Dam MET supplementation decreased lamb’s insulin response (P = 0.06). Hot carcass weight (HCW) (P = 0.08) and Ribeye area (REA) (P = 0.02) were affected by treatment and sex. A tendency and a triple interaction FA*MET*Sex were observed; NFA-MET methionine had a greater HCW and a larger REA. In conclusion, lamb’s insulin response and carcass characteristics are affected by dam’s supplementation.

Abstract:
Quantitative genetic analysis of variability and relationship of lambs body weight traits in indigenous pirot sheep population are done. The examined lambs had high variability which very suitable for selection on a larger weight. There is a high and very significant correlation between the body weight of lambs with 30 and 60 days (.969 **) and the weight with 30 and 90 days (.914 **). There is also a highly significant correlation between the weights of lambs with 60 and 90 days of age (.904 **). From our research, we can see that the first month of the lamb's life is very important for the further development of the body. There is different level of correlation between weight of lambs. This gives us an idea to say that many paragenetic factors are crucial for the growth of lambs from birth to weaning. The coefficient of multiple determination (R2) is 0.845 which means that 8.45% of the lamb's body weight variance at 90 days is determined by the variance of the set of predictor variables (PI-60, 30, 1). Each increase in lamb body weight during the observed periods of age is associated with an increase in the score of depending variable PI90. In particular, any increase in lamb body weight at birth by 1 kg is associated with an increase in lamb body weight from 90 days by 0.238 kg.

Abstract:
Abstract Rations (DM basis) for spring-born male lambs consisting of concentrates ad libitum (CON), 50:50 (50% concentrate:50% forage), and forage ad libitum (FORG) were evaluated across feeding periods of three durations (36, 54, and 72 d). Lambs on CON diets were offered ad libitum access to concentrate along with 400 g of fresh weight silage (daily), while 50:50 diets were offered 0.9 and 3.0 kg of concentrate and silage, respectively. Lambs on FORG were offered ad libitum access to 25.5% DM silage. These rations were fed to 99 spring-born male Texel cross Scottish Blackface lambs which were assigned to a 3 × 3 factorial arrangement. Lambs were slaughtered following completion of their respective treatments. Lambs fed CON diets had greater ADG, FCE, and carcass weight (P < 0.001) and carcasses with greater conformation score (P < 0.001) than lambs fed 50:50 or FORG diets. Duration of feeding had no effect on production variables across all three concentrate inclusion levels. It was concluded that the inclusion of concentrates is needed to adequately finish lambs fed indoors. Feeding lamb’s 50:50 diets resulted in modest responses and may be a viable option for finishing lambs or to maintain growth in lambs when the cost of concentrate feed is high relative to the financial return on the lamb meat.

Abstract:
Records of female lambs and their parents of the Mis sheep breed have used. All animals are approximately have weaned at 90 days of age. Descriptive statistics, paired sample test, paired differences, measures of association, correlations and regression of body weights between female lambs and their parents have done. A complementary least body weights at 30 days and weaning between dams and lambs but utmost weight at 30 days, the lambs were higher while at weaning, the dams had higher weight. It can observe that the averages on body weights the rams were the highest, followed by lambs and the lowest the dams? body weights. The coefficient of determination of R2 varies from low to high, indicating that the lamb's body weight has more influenced by other factors that we have not considered. There were significant correlations between lamb body weight at birth and sire/dam body weight at birth. The results showed highly significant correlations of lamb's body weight at 30 days with dams but with sires, positive and very low. There had positive but no significant correlation between lamb body weight at weaning and sire body weight at weaning. Lamb body weight at weaning and dam body weight at weaning are highly correlated.

Abstract:
Increasing the liveweight of ewe lambs during gestation may have positive effects on lamb birthweight and weaning weight and also on ewe lamb liveweight at weaning. Specific times during the gestation period of the ewe lamb may be more responsive to improved nutrition and increases in liveweight. The objective of this work was to use a meta-analytic approach to investigate the effects of ewe lamb liveweight at mating and during pregnancy on lamb birth and weaning weights, and the ewe lamb’s liveweight at weaning. Increasing ewe lamb liveweight in early gestation and in particular before mating gave the greatest increases in the birth and weaning weight of the lambs, and also of the ewe lamb’s liveweight at weaning compared with increasing liveweight in the second and third trimester of gestation. This indicates that management practices for ewe lambs that generate higher liveweight at mating are likely to result in increased lamb survival, higher weaning percentages, greater lamb weaning weights and create rising 2-year-old ewes with better liveweight for mating in the subsequent season. Compared with ewe lambs that gave birth and reared singletons to weaning, those ewe lambs that gave birth to twins and reared twins had greater increases in lamb birthweights, lamb weaning weights and ewe lamb weights at weaning for each extra kilogram of ewe lamb liveweight during gestation. For ewe lambs, especially those that birth and rear twins, management options that increase the pre-mating weights will have the greatest response in lamb birthweight, weaning weight and liveweight of the ewe lamb itself at weaning.

Full text
Abstract:
The present study used actigraphy to monitor rest–activity cycles in lambs. We employed an Actiwatch Activity Monitor, which was secured on the lamb’s neck in 13 term lambs and six preterm lambs. Activity measurements began on the day of delivery and lasted for 7.3 ± 0.7 days. All lambs exhibited bouts of activity, lasting from ~2 to 60 min, separated by periods of inactivity of about equal duration. There was a progressive increase in the frequency and intensity of activity bouts with age, and a decrease in duration. In relation to postnatal age, preterm lambs had a significantly lower frequency and intensity of activity bouts compared with term lambs and significantly longer mean active bout duration. However, in relation to post-conceptual age, preterm animals were less active at birth, but thereafter the trajectory for activity development was steeper compared with the term lambs. These differences between term and preterm lambs may be due to several factors including differences in: (1) the lengths of time the two groups spent in utero and as neonates as a proportion of the perinatal period, which could influence the rate of muscle and bone growth; (2) prenatal and postnatal hormonal profiles; and (3) maternal care. We also found differences in postnatal motility in male and female lambs, with the trajectory of activity increasing in males at Days 4–5, which could be due, in part at least, to sex differences in both prenatal and postnatal hormonal profiles.

Abstract:
Abstract The practice of crossbreeding using a terminal sire and the use of intact rather than castrated animals has the potential to increase the productivity of lambs produced from the hill sheep sector. The objective of this study was to compare the production and carcass characteristics of purebred Scottish Blackface (SB) and Texel cross Scottish Blackface (TXSB) ram and wether lambs fed on a concentrate diet and slaughtered at different ages. Two hundred spring born male lambs (average birth age ± SD 9.53 d) were assigned to a 2 × 2 factorial arrangement with two breeds SB (n = 100) and TXSB (n = 100) and two sexes (wether: n = 100 and ram: n = 100). Lambs were harvested following a 36 d ad libitum concentrate indoor finishing period. The study was carried out over five harvest batches between October and April. The mean ages of the lambs at harvest (n = 40; 20 TXSB and 20 SB lambs) in October, November, January, March, and April were 196, 242, 293, 344, and 385 days, respectively The TXSB lambs were heavier at slaughter than SB lambs (P < 0.001), and ram lambs were heavier at slaughter than wether lambs (P < 0.01). Improved ADG (P < 0.001), lower feed conversion ratio (FCR) (which was calculated by dividing total feed intake by total weight gain; P < 0.001), and higher feed intake (P < 0.05) were recorded in TXSB lambs with consistency across the five harvest time points. Rams had greater ADG (P < 0.001) and FCR (P < 0.05) compared with wether lambs, and no differences were observed between sexes for feed intake. The TXSB (P < 0.001) lambs had higher (P < 0.001) dressing percentages compared with SB, while wether lambs had greater dressing percentages compared with rams. The TXSB lambs had heavier carcass weights (P < 0.001) with higher conformation grades (P < 0.001) and less fat cover (P < 0.001) than SB lambs, while ram lambs had heavier (P < 0.001) carcasses than wether lambs. There was greater fat cover on the loin muscles of SB (P < 0.001) and wether (P < 0.001) lambs compared with TXSB and ram lambs, respectively. The results from this study suggest that TXSB lamb’s offer hill sheep farmers a potential strategy for improved lamb production efficiency, while ram lambs offer lamb finishers increased growth rates, higher FCR, and produce a more desirable carcass than do wether lambs.

Abstract:
Charles and Mary Lamb’s Tales from Shakespeare played an essential role in Chinese reception history of Shakespeare. The first two adaptations in China,Xiewai qitan 澥外奇譚and Yinbian yanyu 吟邊燕語, chose Tales as the source text. To figure out why the Lambs’ Tales was received in China even earlier than Shakespeare’s original texts, this paper first focuses on Lamb’s relationship with China. Based on archival materials, it then assumes that the Lambs’ Tales might have had a chance to reach China at the beginning of the nineteenth century through Thomas Manning. Finally, it argues that the decision to first bring Shakespeare to China by Tales was made under the consideration of the Lambs’ writing style, the genre choice, the similarity of the Lambs’ and Chinese audiences, and the marketability of Tales. Tracing back to the first encounter between Tales and China throws considerable light on the reception history of Shakespeare in China. It makes sense that nothing is coincidental in the history of cultural reception and the encounters have always been fundamentally influenced by efforts from both the addresser and the receptor.

Abstract:
The parasitic nematodes Teladorsagia (Ostertagia) circumcincta and Haemmonchus contortus are two of the most important pathogens of sheep and goats worldwide. The purpose of the work described in this thesis was to identify the mechanism of resistance to these parasites in young lambs. Lambs infected with T. circumcincta are incapable of controlling their worm burdens. However, it appears that some are capable of controlling the growth and therefore the fecundity of adult female worms. Work described in chapter three shows that the most important mechanism controlling the growth and fecundity of this parasite is the local IgA response. 933 lambs were studied over 5 years. Faecal egg counts were performed on these lambs and 485 of these lambs were slaughtered and the average female worm lengths determined. Analysis showed a highly significant effect of parasite specific IgA on worm length. Those lambs with higher IgA response to fourth-stage larvae had on average shorter worms. This response was heritable. Thus genetic resistance to T. circumcincta acts by reducing worm fecundity and works through a parasite-specific IgA response. In addition, this response is sex related with male lambs having the poorest response and females the best. Not only is the quantity of IgA important in determining host resistance, but also the specificity. Chapter four details work done in investigating the antigen specificity of the IgA response to T. circumcincta.

Full text
Abstract:
Local anaesthetic administered epidurally at the base of the tail, and infiltrated into the testes, spermatic cords and neck of the scrotum eliminated the behavioural and plasma cortisol responses associated with castration and tail-docking, confirming that the pain observed was dependent on afferent activity from the affected areas. Having established the neural basis of the responses seen, attempts were made to modify the intensity of pain experienced so that measurement of the changes in behaviour and plasma cortisol concentration could be used to determine the usefulness of the behavioural and physiological indices adopted for the recognition and assessment of pain. Pretreatment with intravenous naloxone 0.2mg/kg I/V), which was anticipated to antagonise an endogenous opioid antinociceptive system activated following castration and tail-docking, provided limited evidence for an increase in pain intensity. 6 procedures which were proposed to represent a range of intensities and duration of noxious stimulation based on the amount and type of tissue involved were ranked in the expected order using the physiological and behavioural indices selected. A study was undertaken to determine if morphine (16mg) etorphine (10nmol) or xylaziantne (50g) by either the epidural or intrathecal route could provide a method by which pain intensity could be reduced in a dose dependent manner, to further improve the indices used for recognising and assessing pain. The results of these studies suggested that the pain produced by castration or castration and tail-docking cannot be eliminated by the doses of the drugs tested and the routes used. To confirm these results preliminary experiments were performed, morphine or xylazine was administered intrathecally to demonstrate active drug gained access to, and had the expected effect on the Sural-semitendinosus reflex in the lamb. Morphine failed to suppress the semitendinosus reflex which is consistent with the results obtained. The suppression of the semitendinosus reflex by xylazine is not consistent with the absence of analgesia in lambs to which either epidural or intrathecal xylazine (50g) had been administered prior to castration or castration and tail-docking, as the general view is that reflex suppression is highly correlated with the level of analgesia. The results of this study present data which shows physiological and behavioural indices can be used to recognise and assess a range of pain intensities in this age of lamb originating from the scrotum, testes and tail.

Abstract:
The aim of this research was to study the possibility of using automatic concentrate feeding stations in fattening of lambs. Ten Romanov × Dorper weaned male lambs (initial live weight 21.0 ± 0.86 kg) for fattening were used. Lambs were kept indoors in separate pen and research was carried out in production conditions. Concentrate was distributed for animals individually in automatic feeding station. Adaption period were not applied, eight lambs had the concentrate intake in the automatic feeding station from first research day, one started eat concentrate from third research day and one – from eleventh day of research. The frequency of visits to automatic feeding station and daily concentrate intake was recorded and analyzed. Lamb’s were weighted before research and every fourteen days, live weight changes were analyzed. During all the research average number of daily visits to automatic feeding station of one lamb were 13 visits, average daily concentrate intake per animal was: 84 % of the average ration (1642 g) in all research period. Results shows, that average daily live weight gain was 246 ± 26.3 g, during last quarter daily live weight gain (89 ± 27.7 g) was significantly (p < 0.05) lover than in other quarters. For 1 kg lamb live weight gain 5.39 kg concentrate was used.

Abstract:
Overall sheep production is influenced by certain factors, genetic and paragenetic. Fertility traits of sheep are more influenced by non-genetic systematic factors, whether they are discontinuous in nature (year of birth, season of birth and lambing, partus in order, type of birth, sex of lambs) or continuous (age at first insemination, etc.). The research included 180 sheep of the Pramenka breed, Sjenica pramenka in the breeding areas of three municipalities: Priboj, Prijepolje and Nova Varos. Data on the growth of lambs in the lactation period were analyzed, as follows: weight at birth, weight at the age of 30 and 90 days of age. The influence of fixed paragenetic factors such as: breeding area, year of birth of ewes, lambing in order, type of lambing, sex on the manifestation and variability of the observed characteristics of lamb growth in the lactation period was observed. The breeding area and type of birth had a significant effect (P <0.01) on the weight of lambs from all three age categories. The year of birth of lambs and the interaction of the breeding area and type of birth had a highly significant effect (P <0.01) on the mass of lambs at birth and at the age of 90 days, and significantly (P <0.05) on the mass of lambs at 30 days of age. Lambs in a row and a half of lambs did not significantly affect any trait of lamb growth in the lactation period. The coefficients of determination for the observed traits were high and very significant and ranged from 0.775 (77.5%) in the mass of lambs at birth to 0.397 (39.7%) in the mass at 30 days.

Abstract:
Lamb production dominates in organic sheep production, while milk production is much less present and very rare. There are usually two basic systems of breeding in lamb production: fattening of lambs on pasture and combined fattening of lambs. In organic goat breeding, the most common is the organic production of milk and dairy products, primarily quality goat cheeses. The cultivation system is usually a combination of grazing (summer half of the year) and stable cultivation (winter half of the year). Such agriculture provides amortization of the negative effects of social development on the ecosphere and the human population as a whole.

Abstract:
The researches carried out at the Karakul Moldavian sheep farm du-ring 2018-2022 have determined that the lambs of the Elite Class were obtained 594 heads with the share of 23.6% and the First Class lambs were obtained in amount of 1089 heads which constituted the share of 55.9%.. By the type of curls 649 heads possessed flat type making up 33.3%, jacket curling type had 594 heads with share of 30.5%, and costal curling type had 510 heads or 26.1% of the total herd. The study of the lambskin qualities as silkiness and gloss were expressed in points, and have demonstrated that among lambs of the colors of grey and sur significantly exceed the lambs of the black color. Thus, the silkiness in the grey lambs was 7.47-8.47 points and with the exception in 2019, significantly (P≤0,01; P≤0,001) exceeded the silkiness of the black lambs. The silkiness of the sur lambs was 7.1 - 8.05 points, and significantly (P≤0,05; P≤0,01) exceeded the silkiness of the black lambs, which was 6.51 - 7.62 points. The gloss in grey lambs was of 7.47-8.39 points and with the exception in 2019, significantly (P≤0,05; P≤0,01; P≤0,001) exceeded the gloss of the black lambs. On the lot of sur lambs the gloss was recorded with 7.1-8.09 points and except for the years 2018 and 2022, significantly (P≤0,05; P≤0,01) exceeded the gloss in black lambs which constituted 6.53 - 7.65 points.

Abstract:
The main goal of this research is to examine the influences of extensive breeding methods and their interactions on the result of rearing lambs of Sjenica pramenka breed, more precisely the influence of body weight values of lambs reared in four different locations: Novi Pazar, Raska, Tutin, Sjenica. Lambs were tested from January 2018 to April 2020. The average birth weight of Sjenica pramenka lambs for 2018 is 2.98 kg, for 2019 it is 3.03 kg, The average birth weight of Sjenica pramenka lambs for 2020 is 3.32 kg. The highest average birth weight of lambs was measured in Sjenica and amounted to 3.55 kg, and the lowest in Tutin with 2.59 kg. In Novi Pazar 3.36 kg, and in Raska 3.41 kg. The difference in birth weight between lambs can be explained by breeding conditions, sheep selection and nutrition.

Abstract:
The high power pulsed Nd:YAG laser is very useful for material processing and other applications. Different applications need different laser pulses with different pulse widths and rise times. A high power pulsed Nd:YAG laser were successfully designed , it includes three big YAG rods (ϕ10 × 150mm), six Krypton lambs and six power supplies with different pulse width and rise times .Here we use Krypton lamb instead of Xenon lamb because it has better spectrum match feature , high conversion efficiency and suited to long pulse operation. The power supplies have resonant and switched types(VDMOS and IGBT). Cooling system has internal and external circular systems. Whole system has a laser light fiber delivery device which can be transmitted high energy. Table shows the light shapes of Krypton lamp and shapes of laser pulses. The pulsewidth can be tuning from 0.3 to 6 ms, the rise time can be tuning from 0.2 to 0.8ms.

Full text
Abstract:
A minimum count survey of Dall?s sheep (Ovis dalli) in Yukon-Charley Rivers National Preserve was conducted from July 18 to 20, 2023. The Preserve was last surveyed in July of 2018. The current survey examined the same 7 core survey units as the previous survey and the Ogilvie Mountains. In the core area (the 7 units most often surveyed), 70 sheep (32 ewes, 13 lambs, 6 yearlings and 19 rams) were detected. This constitutes a 75% decrease from the long-term average (284 sheep, 1997?2018) and a 68% decrease from the last survey (221 sheep, 2018). There were 40 lambs, 19 yearlings, and 59 rams per 100 ewes in the core area. Declines varied by space and sex classes. Declines were greater in survey units with historically fewer sheep and lower proportions of ewes (91% decline; 5580 Mountain, Copper Mountain, Diamond Fork, Twin Mountain) versus the survey units with more sheep and higher proportions of ewes (67% decline; Charley River, Cirque Lakes, Mount Sorenson). Across the latter more populous survey units, ewes and rams declined by 70% and 40%, respectively, compared to the long-term average. For the first time, no sheep were observed in two of the survey units (Copper Mountain and Diamond Fork). In the Ogilvie Mountains, 26 sheep were detected (18 ewes, 4 lambs, 0 yearling and 4 rams) representing a 28% decline since the last survey. This translates to 22 lambs, 0 yearlings and 22 rams per 100 ewes.

Abstract:
The key objectives of this BARD project were to: (1) study long-term effects of immunization of prepubertal ewes against recombinant ovine placental lactogen (roPL) on subsequent birth weights of their lambs and their milk production; (2) optimize the anti-roPL immunization protocol using adjuvant preparations acceptable to producers and regulatory agencies; and (3) determine the physiological mechanism(s) whereby immunization against oPL increases fetal growth and development and mammogenesis. These objectives were based on key findings from a previous BARD project that: (a) immunization of ewes against roPL increased lamb birth weight and ewe milk production during lactation; (b) roPL and recombinant ovine growth hormone (roGH) increased the proliferation and differentiated function of endometrial glands that, in turn, would enhance uterine secretions necessary for fetal and placental growth; and (c) exogenous roPL and roGH stimulated mammogenesis and milk production during lactation. The BARD projects address central problems in sheep production, including reproductive failure due to embryonic/fetal mortality, low birth weight of lambs especially in prolific breeds, and reduced milk yields which affect neonatal survival. The sheep placenta secretes both lactogenic (oPL) and somatogenic (oGH) hormones. The receptors for those hormones are present in the fetus and placenta as well as maternal uterus, and mammary gland. Our research has focused on determining the biological role of these placental hormones in development and differentiation of the uterus during gestation and the mammary gland during pregnancy and lactation. Studies conducted in the current BARD project indicated that the effects of anti-roPL immunization were variable in ewes and that commercially available and widely acceptable adjuvant preparations were not effective to produce high anti-roPL titers in pre-pubertal ewes. In the non-prolific Rambouillet ewe in Texas and in the Awassi and the Assaf in Israel, anti-roPL immunization increased lamb birth weight; however, the magnitude of this effect and the inherent variability precluded our ability to determine the physiological mechanism of how the immunization increases fetal growth. Collectively, our findings suggest that anti-roPL immunization is not currently feasible as an easy and efficacious tool for the producer to increase flock reproductive and production efficiency. The variability in response of individual ewes to anti-roPL immunization likely includes modifying the recombinant hormone and the type of adjuvant used for the immunization. In particular, the oPL may need to be modified to ensure maximum antigenicity in a broad range of breed types. Nonetheless, the investigators continue to collaborate on identifying fundamental mechanisms that can be improved by genetics or management to enhance the efficiency of uteroplacental function and, in turn, fetal growth and development. High prolificacy is a desirable trait in intensive sheep production systems. One of the main limitations of using prolific breeds of sheep is that increased litter size is associated with low birth weights and increased mortality of lambs. Further, low birth weight is associated with an increased propensity for adult diseases and decreased production efficiency. Indeed, our recent studies find that the birth weights of lambs born in large litters can be improved by both genetics and management. Future cooperative research will continue to focus on reproductive efficiency of sheep that have broader implications for improving production efficiency in all types of ruminant livestock.
