摘要: Housing systems and environmental features can influence beef cattle welfare. To date, little information has been synthesized on this topic. The aim of scoping review was to examine the relationship between housing welfare status, so that producers animal scientists make informed decisions regarding how their choices could impact were categorized by floor type, space allowance shade availability, as well inclusion enrichment devices or ventilation features. Evaluation allowances across feedlot environments determined behavioral production benefits when housed 2.5 m2 3.0 per animal. Over 19 different flooring types investigated types; straw viewed most favorably from a behavioral, hygiene standpoint. Veal calves experience enhanced (e.g., improved physiological, performance metrics) group housed. There is evidence implementation progressive modifications shade, enrichment) promote cattle. This presents advantages disadvantages specific
