Transport Effects

Both road type and journey time may influence the welfare of animals during road transportation. Animals may face a higher risk of injury on narrow, winding roads (Waran et al., 1993), and increasing the journey time may have deleterious consequences for animal welfare (Mormede et al., 1982), carcass bruising (Yeh et al., 1978), and meat quality (Wythes et al., 1981). In this study, the effects of road type and journey time on the behavioural and physiological responses of farmed red deer were investigated.

This write up is aimed at proffering solution to the problem of transportation stress in ruminants in the tropics. Ascorbic acid is safe as buttressed in this write up for the improvement of meat quality in short and long terms road transportation stress.This review cover an aspect of animal physiology of stress, veterinary pharmacological aspects of ascorbic acid, how ascorbic acid improved meat product of animals exposed to long transportation stress. Ascorbic acid had no withdrawal period and was scientifically proven to be advantageous to meat characteristics and animal welfare. This was given credence to by its advantages as an anti-oxidative agent in solving the menace of road transportation to veterinarians, animal scientists and other professionals in the livestock industry.
