CSEF · 2007 Mammalian Biology

Overview

Objectives/Goals The goal of my project was to determine if the age of a cow affects how active it is . Methods/Materials To archive this I attached pedometers to cows of different ages for 24hr and recorded the number of steps. The cows ID tags were used to confirm their ages. Results With the exception of very young cows, ages did not seem to have much of an affect on the activity level. Conclusions/Discussion The age did not really affect the activity of the cows as much as other things in their environment. Things causing changes in activity level are; foot warts, weather, feeding times, milking patterns.
