季节对秦川牛行为的影响研究

The study on the behavior of Qinchuan cattle in different seasons

为了研究适合于秦川牛的生活环境、提高秦川牛饲养管理水平,试验对不同季节秦川牛的体表温度、呼吸频率、采食行为、反刍行为、排泄行为及运动行为等生理参数的变化进行了测定。结果表明：夏季秦川牛的体表温度升高,呼吸频率加快,采食行为中咀嚼速度加快,排泄行为中排尿次数增多;秋季秦川牛体表温度降低,呼吸频率变慢,采食行为中采食速度加快,反刍行为中每个食团咀嚼次数增多、咀嚼时间加长;冬季秦川牛体表温度降低,呼吸频率变慢,采食行为中采食速度变慢,但咀嚼时间加长、咀嚼次数增多。说明环境温度是影响秦川牛行为的重要因素。

In order to study the suitable living environment and improve the feeding and management level of Qinchuan cattle,the changes of body surface temperature,respiratory frequency,feeding behavior,ruminating behavior,excretion behavior and exercise behavior of Qinchuan cattle in different seasons were measured. The results showed that in summer,the body surface temperature of Qinchuan cattle was increased,the respiratory rate was increased,the chewing speed was increased,and the number of urination was increased. In autumn,the body surface temperature of Qinchuan cattle was decreased,the respiratory rate was decreased,the feeding speed was increased,the chewing times and chewing time were increased in the ruminating behavior of Qinchuan cattle. In winter,the feeding speed of Qinchuan cattle became lower,but the chewing time was longer and the number of chewing increased. It is concluded that the environmental temperature is an important factor affecting the behavior of Qinchuan cattle.
