Being the oldest in the family 4-H and showing cattle was something completely new and was definitely a learning process. Over the years my passion for cattle has continued to grow and I always love learning more about them. Both at home and at my job I work around cattle all the time. I think that it will be very interesting learning about their different behaviors. Learning about their behavior will be very useful and can help me learn more about how to get them to operate officially and be able to read what they are thinking. ]]> 2019-01-16 00:36:38 UTC https://padlet.com/megpier13/zyq72v1q18o2/wish/321049369 megpier13 https://padlet.com/megpier13/zyq72v1q18o2/wish/322772233 In this study they used German Angus and German Simmental cattle to conduct their research. What they discovered is that enzyme monoamine oxidase A and the coding gene play a major role in the cows behavior. ]]> 2019-01-21 19:58:52 UTC https://padlet.com/megpier13/zyq72v1q18o2/wish/322772233 megpier13 https://padlet.com/megpier13/zyq72v1q18o2/wish/323716309 In this study they took post weaning calves and evaluated their feed intake.

It is designed like this because cattle like to walk in circles cause it calms them. there is also gates along the way. That way once the cattle get past that point you can close it behind them so that they continue to move forward and don't have an option to back out. Then once they get to the chute they can be squeezed in to calm them down.]]> 2019-02-07 01:18:15 UTC https://padlet.com/megpier13/zyq72v1q18o2/wish/328558437 megpier13 https://padlet.com/megpier13/zyq72v1q18o2/wish/330076612 2019-02-11 20:06:14 UTC https://padlet.com/megpier13/zyq72v1q18o2/wish/330076612 megpier13 https://padlet.com/megpier13/zyq72v1q18o2/wish/335084050 In this picture they are trying to show dominance on how has control.]]> 2019-02-25 20:21:45 UTC https://padlet.com/megpier13/zyq72v1q18o2/wish/335084050 megpier13 https://padlet.com/megpier13/zyq72v1q18o2/wish/335715532  The hierarchy of cattle usually depends on the temperament of the animal, her age and her size. However I think that despotism dominance hierarchy is probable the most common. I feel that this is especially true when there is a bull in the pen with heifers. This could also be true in a pen of all heifers, there is typically one heifer that tires to be the dominant one especially when it comes to fighting over feed. ]]> 2019-02-27 01:55:12 UTC https://padlet.com/megpier13/zyq72v1q18o2/wish/335715532 megpier13 https://padlet.com/megpier13/zyq72v1q18o2/wish/337700537 When bulls are interested in a cow they turn their nose up and start bellowing. ]]> 2019-03-04 22:13:31 UTC https://padlet.com/megpier13/zyq72v1q18o2/wish/337700537 megpier13 https://padlet.com/megpier13/zyq72v1q18o2/wish/337701961  In this video it show how the cow will try and ride another cow in the herd this shows that the cow is in heat and ready for the bull.]]> 2019-03-04 22:19:45 UTC https://padlet.com/megpier13/zyq72v1q18o2/wish/337701961 megpier13 https://padlet.com/megpier13/zyq72v1q18o2/wish/343509707 1) The mother will lick the calf after she gives birth to it.

Cattle swallow things that are pretty big and before it can pass on to the ruminant it has to be broken down. A lot of times cattle was graze a lot of grass while they can and then they regurgitate those larger particle and chew them down so that they can then be digested. Most of the time you will hear this called "chewing the cud". ]]> 2019-03-28 15:05:50 UTC https://padlet.com/megpier13/zyq72v1q18o2/wish/346184446 megpier13 https://padlet.com/megpier13/zyq72v1q18o2/wish/346191123 2019-03-28 15:17:56 UTC https://padlet.com/megpier13/zyq72v1q18o2/wish/346191123 megpier13 https://padlet.com/megpier13/zyq72v1q18o2/wish/350513658 2019-04-10 18:47:35 UTC https://padlet.com/megpier13/zyq72v1q18o2/wish/350513658 megpier13 https://padlet.com/megpier13/zyq72v1q18o2/wish/354291540 2019-04-25 21:54:07 UTC https://padlet.com/megpier13/zyq72v1q18o2/wish/354291540
