Wiki Sumber Informasi iSIKHNAS

For animals maintained outdoors it may be useful think about:

• Their environment - what soils and pasture are available and what is the water source?
• Are there areas of muddy and boggy land (swamp), fast flowing water or steep hills?
• What wildlife exists in the area and are they capable of carrying any diseases that may affect livestock?
• Is there sufficient shelter from prevailing winds and rain or sun?
• Is there sufficient feed supply for the animals that are present?
• Is there any evidence to suggest that animals might be gaining access to poisons or toxins (garbage dumps, industrial areas, agricultural chemicals)?
• Is there any evidence of overcrowding that may lead to stress, contamination of the environment and increased risk of disease?
