Abstract

The article discusses a study which assessed the welfare of cattle and water buffalo exported from India to Bangladesh in terms of the frequency of dehydration, metabolic depletion and muscle injury or activation, when they reached their destination. Comparisons of species were analysed by means of a Fisher's Exact test. Results showed similarities in total plasma protein and serum sodium in cattle and water buffalo. The study concluded that dehydration and metabolic exhaustion were common in the transport of these animals.
