At the livestock farm level, smart technologies are used mainly for identifying and locating animals, monitoring them to assess welfare and body condition, assessing and predicting performance, health and reproductive status. Data obtained using various measuring devices (sensors), most often appropriately transformed and integrated, enable early detection of physiological events that routinely occur in the animal's life (estrus, upcoming parturition), as well as undesirable events, such as metabolic disorders and diseases (mainly of the udder and limbs). Also, constant monitoring of animals, resulting in the collection of large sets of data supports the genomic evaluation of the breeding values. Thanks to smart technologies, it is possible to assess the correctness of nutrition, the quality of pastures and the impact of animals on the environment, including the amount of greenhouse gas emissions, as well as to control the microclimate of livestock buildings and to predict the economic efficiency of production. Moreover, these technologies are used for ensuring the safety and quality of animal products in the chain from the producer to the consumer.

The purpose of this study was to obtain information about otter population in terms of spatio-temporal distribution, abundance and/or density and other ecological characteristics of the otter population in the Somova - Parcheș aquatic complex. Because the otter is a solitary, nocturnal animal with a large distribution area, direct methods of assessing population numbers are difficult. That is why indirect methods were used in this study, such as: counting footprints, feces, latrines, territory marking places. The abundance of presence signs is considered a measure of the activity of the species. During the study period, a number of 256 signs of presence were inventoried (spraints, jellies, footprints) and 2 specimens of otter were identified (1 dead adult and a live chick both found in fishing nets). The greatest abundance of presence signs is found on the wooded inner hills of the lacustrine complex. Starting from the west to the east of the complex we can consider 4 areas with a high density of signs of presence. The most abundant signs of presence were found in the winter season (33.2%).

The purpose of this study was the analysis of spatio-temporal variations of length, total mass and the Fulton condition factor (useful index for monitoring feeding intensity) as well as of the length-total mass relationship, which is an important parameter, which helps to know the growth pattern of fish populations. A number of 1200 individuals from the Trachurus mediterraneus species (Steindachner, 1868) that were collected from pelagic trawls and stationary uncovered pound nets along the Black Sea coastal area in the periods 2013-2015 and 2018-2020 were analysed. The average lengths and weights were 11.4 ± 2.3 cm and 14.0 ± 8.3 g, respectively, and the minimum and maximum values were 3.0 and 19.0 cm in length and 0.6 and 61.2 g in weight. The value of exponent b in the equation is 2.9485, indicating that the weight increase is allometrically positive. The mean value of the Fulton was 0.84 ± 0.11, and the minimum and maximum values were 0.42 and 1.74. The average length and average weight were significantly correlated with the Fulton index (r = - 0.069; p = 0.017, respectively r = 0.168; p < 0.0001). The total length and the Fulton index of horse mackerel varied significantly between stations and between years and months, which is most likely due to seasonal variations, as well as trophic differences between areas.

The structural changes made in the cattle breed composition during the last 30 years in Bulgaria, along with studies on milk and meat productivity, have required the study of hides as a strategic raw material for the light industry. The relative weight, percentage of hide from the live weight, size, surface area, and thickness in certain sections of cull cows excluded from breeding for various reasons, from the following breeds were studied: Limousin, Galloway, Normande cattle, Bulgarian Red Cattle. Significant breed differences were observed in the examined hide parameters. The best represented in the space, as a spread of the configuration, was the raw hides obtained from Normande cattle (498.29 dm₂), followed by Bulgarian Red Cattle (461.23 dm₂). The worst indicators were found in Galloway (388.75 dm₂) (p <005).

The research was conducted in 2022, on 89 horses; the studied breed was Furioso-North Star, from Rușețu Stud Farm, and 66 broodmares (from the 2001-2019 generations) and 23 stallions (from the 1999-2019 generations) were included in this analysis. Seven of these males have served as sires, while the other 16 were used for public breeding. The horses were assessed based on data obtained from standard measurements (height at the withers, heart girth, and cannon girth) performed during the annual ranking procedure. The results obtained regarding the height showed that it registered average values ranging between 161.29 ± 0.23 cm for broodmares and 161.43 ± 0.39 cm for stallions. The heart girth had average values of 183.73 ± 0.29 cm for broodmares and 185 ± 0.40 cm for stallions, while the cannon circumference had average values of 20.83 ± 0.1 cm for females and 21.52 ± 0.23 cm for males. Based on these results, it was observed that the studied group is homogeneous concerning all three analysed traits. The data obtained from the measurements are within the breed's standard and justify the promotion/maintenance of these horses within the stud farm's broodstock.

The specific properties of colostrum make it an indispensable source of nutrients and passive immunity for newborns. Feeding kids with colostrum within the first hours after parturition is extremely important for their health and survival. The composition of colostrum in different animal species is not the same. There is also a difference in terms of interbreeding. The present study aims to monitor the changes in the physicochemical parameters of colostrum from Anglo-Nubian (AN) goats that occurred within the first 24 hours after parturition. The study was conducted in the goat farm of the RIMSA, Troyan, Bulgaria, and a total of 40 colostrum samples were obtained from clinically healthy AN goats. For the studied period of 24 hours, a reliable decrease of the studied parameters was reported: protein (14.21-7.79%), total solids (24.02-20.84%), solid-not-fat (19.21-12.93%), density (1.045-10.354 g/ml3), acidity (32-21oT) and Ca (0.254-0.1494 mg/%). In contrast, for the indicators, such as fat (5.32-8.37%), lactose (2.63-3.43%), and pH (6.24-6.31), an increase in the values was observed.

The aim of the present study was to highlight the influence of the age of first calving, parity, new-born weight and calving season on the average daily gain. The biological material consists of Holstein calves reared in an intensive system. The data obtained from the measurements at 7 days and 30 days, were statistically processed with the help of Statistics Analysis of Variance and Covariance (SAVC) and SPSS 16.00 computer programs. Significant differences between batches (p<0.05) were observed at 7 days, between calves born by cows having second parity which has a mean with 0.300 g higher of daily gain than those calved by third parity cows. At 30 days, the daily gain mean value has significantly greater differences (p<0.05), been with 0.12 g/day higher in the case of calves born in winter compared to those born in summer and with 0.14 g/day compared to those calved in spring (p<0.01). In the case of calves studied for age at first calving and birth weight, there are no differences between the batches so, these factors not influencing their further development in the case of the considered periods.

The study of milk proteins from different animal species is essential for understanding their impact on human health and their potential in the food industry. This article examines the biological role of proteins found in sheep and cow milk, highlighting their unique contributions to human nutrition and disease prevention. Through a comparative analysis, we explore the specific protein profiles of these two types of milk, including amino acid composition, biological activities, and digestibility. By employing a methodology that integrates in vitro studies, clinical trials, and systematic literature reviews, we assessed the impact of these proteins on bone health, muscle development, and immune system regulation. Our findings reveal that, although sharing some essential nutritional properties, sheep and cow milk proteins exhibit marked differences in terms of immunomodulatory capabilities and the prevention of chronic diseases. Specifically, certain sheep milk proteins have shown superior potential in promoting gastrointestinal health and preventing inflammation. This article concludes on the importance of diversifying protein sources in the diet to fully leverage their health benefits, highlighting the potentially superior role of sheep milk in certain nutritional and therapeutic contexts. Our discoveries open new avenues for exploiting the unique properties of sheep and cow milk proteins, both for nutritional science and industrial applications.

Although climate change is a certainty in the current era, very few people are aware of the medium and long-term effects it may cause. Therefore, the purpose of this research was to assess the impact of climate change on the breeding season of Karakul of Botoșani ewes. The research relied on the analysis and interpretation of data concerning the time interval when the first ewes exhibited sexual heat and when over 50% of the total number of ewes assigned for mating were mounted, spanning each season between 2000 and 2022. The biological material studied consisted of a representative population of adult ewes belonging to the Botoșani Karakul sheep breed, located at the Research Station for Sheep and Goats Breeding, in Popăuți-Botoșani. The obtained data highlight that between 2000 and 2011, the first ewes were mounted at the end of August (when the temperature was around 15°C). For the reproduction seasons between 2011 and 2022, it is observed that the period in which the first ewes exhibit sexual cycles shifted towards the middle of September (when the temperature at 8 AM remained around 15°C). Moreover, the period when over 50% of ewes exhibited sexual cycles and accepted mating also shifted towards the latter part of September and the first half of October. Under these conditions, it can be said that the third heat cycle, in which the proportion of mounted ewes exceeded 95%, shifted towards the first half of November.
