STUDIES ON THE BODY TEMPERATURE AND RESPIRATION RATE OF BUFFALO COWS UNDER NORMAL CONDITIONS

[摘要] The results of observations on the body temperature and respiration rate of 10 buffalo cows, kept in open sheds during the summer in Egypt, over a period of 24 days, are reported.There was a wide range of variation between cows in their body reactions.The diurnal variations in body reactions tended to coincide with diurnal variations in atmospheric conditions.Vapour pressure was more closely correlated to physiological responses than was air temperature.Measurements of body temperature appeared to give a better assessment of heat tolerance than did respiration rate.
