Abstrakt | Under natural conditions cows and their calves live together in small maternal herds. In dairy practice, however, calves are separated from their mothers within hours after birth and then housed individually. Therefore, alternative housing with increased social environment is widely discussed. Although knowledge of short term effects is increasing, less is known about long term effects that would occur months or years after calves were exposed to the alternative early social environments. |
