Ansätze zur Schmerzbeobachtung bei Kälbern – ein Überblick

Die Schmerzbeurteilung beim Rind und insbesondere bei Kälbern ist nicht immer ganz einfach, da deren Körpersignale eher unauffällig sind. Wir zeigen, welche Methoden es zur Schmerzerkennung und Schmerzmessung bei Kälbern gibt und warum das Thema „Schmerz“ für die Rinderhaltung eine hohe Priorität hat.
