Summer temperatures are on the rise!☀️

As summer temperatures begin to rise, so does the threat of summer heat stress. Heat stress has a negative impact on animal welfare and a health impact on cattle caused by the relationship between temperature, humidity and air flow. Heat stress can impact performance and reproductive efficiency along with health outcomes in livestock.

As heat stress begins, clinical signs may not be noticeable or may remain very subtle. Possible signs include decreased appetite, lethargy, restlessness, and weakness. As the condition progresses, rapid breathing, panting, or drooling are often noticed. As cattle seek relief, they may walk more, leading to lameness, or group together, which may amplify hot conditions. Water resources need increased during times of potential heat stress. When temperatures are above 40 degrees fahrenheit, every 10 degree increase in ambient temperature causes cattle to consume one more gallon of water per day.
