摘要: The responses of pigs to being driven and mixed together in lairage were investigated. Five groups six five seven 70 kg transported for 40 minutes on a lorry then subjected one the following treatments: two down passage; four (A D) hour B together, C D together); and, passage ('combined treatment'). pigs' behaviour was recorded, skin damage scored saliva samples taken analysis cortisol. initial journey increased salivary concentration Their while not correlated with concentrations cortisol after they did increase relative post-transport levels. frequency duration fighting when positively their level aggression home pen mixed. One had been mixed, decreased After combined treatment, correlations observed mixing treatment absent, Skin greatest indicate that effects driving mixing, which are very common lairage, greater than or alone.
