Temperament Scoring Made Easy

摘要

Temperament scoring of cattle is as easy as documenting "walk? "trot" or "run," says behavioral expert Temple Grandin. Scoring cattle exit speed from a squeeze chute with simple "walk," "trot" or "run" scores may be a more sensitive indicator of temperament differences in beef cattle than traditional chute scoring. That's according to a study by Jennifer Baszczak and other researchers at Colorado State University (CSU).
