Disease Description
|
Veterinarians, much like producers, usually don't get excited about lameness problems since the animal usually doesn't die 'and often remains in acceptable condition but losses due to lameness. do accumulate to sizeable amounts. Some of these losses include: (1) decline in milk output, (2) decrease in body weight, (3) decrease in feed efficiency, (4) premature culling of potentially valuable cattle, :and (5) cost of treatment (https://lib.dr.iastate.edu/cgi/viewcontent.cgi?article=2678&context=iowastate_veterinarian)
