Effects of density and water availability on the behavior, physiology, and weight loss of slaughter horses during transport
The aim of this study was to determine the effects of density and provision of water on behavior, stress, and weight loss in slaughter horses during transport. A 16.2-m long, single deck, semi-trailer was divided into three compartments to create high, medium, and low density (5000, 4000, and 3000 k...
