Shelter policies Understanding livestock mentality Flight zone and point of balance Moving livestock Reducing stress on livestock

3 Safety Remember the safety of the volunteers and the animals is the first concern of Noah’s Wish A cow is heavy and stepping on your foot can cause damage Know kicking zone Cattle kick from side Horses kick out or strike in front Be aware that cattle that are chased by dogs can kick out from behind and horses can also “cow” kick. The safe way to walk around livestock

4 Safety-cont A stressed herd can run you over if you don’t have an escape route Be aware of animals that have the tendency to charge or ram

5 Key differences between livestock and domestic animals
Owned for commercial purposes Usually live in natural herd conditions Usually food animals or dairy producing Different methods of handling Identification methods Branding Ear notch Tags Microchip Noah’s Wish doesn’t judge what the animals are used for. What is herd mentality and show video now. Microchip in a horse is found in the neck on the left side half way between the poll and whithers. Pigs and other food animals-scan right hind leg just about the dew claw or base of right ear. Goats-both sides under base of tale or under right dew claw. Pet pigs, goats probably between the shoulder blades. Snakes, turtles, Iguanas and other reptiles may be scanned

6 How disasters effect livestock
Floods the herd would try to find high ground No electricity No clean water Tornados and hurricanes Barns and Fencing gone If there is not electricity. How do the cows get milked? Is there water for the animals? This is natural behavior but not always true. Animals can become so afraid that they do the opposite. In Mid-Wests floods the pig kept running back in the water and after they had been rescued and many died. Horses run back into barns that are on fire possiblibly because they are seeking comfort because they are afraid If just give water we don’t intake
