“…Existem vários sistemas de produção de vitelos entre eles, o conhecido como "baby beef" que se destaca pela produção de carne branca ou rosa. Estes animais são alimentados com dietas líquidas, alojados em baias individuais, sendo abatidos com três a oito meses de idade (Prado et al, 1989a, Prado et al, 1989b, Prado et al, 1989c, Mousquer et al, 2013. Neste caso, sendo criticado por ambientalistas e sociedades protetoras de animais no que diz respeito às questões de bem-estar e humanitárias, embora o Brasil não tenha tradição nesta exploração animal.…”

RESUMO.Este artigo tem o objetivo de discutir o papel da medicina veterinária forense com ênfase no bem-estar de bovinos leiteiros. Cresce a consciência mundial em torno da maneira como manejamos e tratamos os bovinos leiteiros durante o ciclo de produção, sendo o bem-estar animal o maior desafio para alcançar sistemas produtivos. Casos de suspeita de crueldade, abuso ou negligência contra animais confrontam profissionais e suas equipes com dilemas éticos, os quais envolvem preocupações econômicas, de gestão e jurídicas. A cada dia a mídia revela com maior frequência informações sobre a forma como os animais de produção são tratados. Perante este cenário houve grande interesse dos consumidores em geral sobre produtos oriundos de animais criados em regime de manejo humanizado. Neste contexto, surge com força a medicina veterinária forense como ciência embasada cientificamente na criminalística, na ética, no direito e no bem-estar dos animais de produção. Longe de constituir apenas como uma especialidade a medicina veterinária forense vem trazendo um novo cenário exercendo uma visão multidisciplinar e subsidiando um novo paradigma na cadeia de produção animal. A descrição deste artigo deixou claro nova visão do sistema de exploração dos bovinos leiteiros onde deve prevalecer relação de atitudes cotidianas que sejam consideradas as necessidades comportamentais, fisiológicas, reprodutivas e sanitárias, levando em conta à ética, o respeito e a compaixão, que favoreçam equilíbrio entre produção e bem-estar animal.Palavras chave: Bioética, bovinos, ciências forenses, criminalística, doenças, medicina veterinária legal Fundamentals and applications of forensic veterinary medicine in the welfare of dairy cattle: Review ABSTRACT. This paper aims to discuss the role of forensic veterinary medicine with emphases on the well-being of dairy cattle. The overall awareness grows on dairy cattle management and treating during the production life. Animal welfare is the biggest challenge to reach productive systems. Cases of suspected cruelty, abuse or neglect of animals confront professionals and their teams with ethical dilemmas, which involve economic, managerial and legal concerns. Every day the media often reveals information about how production animals are treated. Given this situation there was great interest of consumers in general about products from animals raised under a humanized management mode. In this context, forensic veterinary medicine emerges as a science based

Como medida alternativa estes autores sugerem a produção orgânica de vitelos os quais são produzidos com alimentação sólida e abatidos entre 280 a 330 kg, com 12 meses de idade, criados de maneira extensiva, neste caso, sendo menos impactante do ponto de vista humanitário.…”

“…Such production is very similar to which is made with bovine calf, in which animals are raised predominantly on a liquid diet and slaughtered at a young age. The use of these animals for meat production is a widespread practice on the European market, especially in the coastal countries of the Mediterranean (MOUSQUER et al, 2013).…”

The objective of this study was to evaluate the performance and economic indicators of baby goats region submitted to different feeding systems in the Semiarid. A total of 30 baby goats of breed Parda Alpina × without defined racial pattern (SPRD) with initial weight of 3.35 kg ± 0.65 kg and final weight of 12.3 kg ± 0.5 kg were used, distributed in a completely randomized design in three breastfeeding systems with ten replicates each: traditional system (with natural breastfeeding), intensive breastfeeding system without concentrated supplementation, and intensive breastfeeding with concentrated supplementation. Goats submitted to the intensive artificial feeding system without concentrated supplementation showed a similar weight gain (121 g/day) when compared to the goats submitted to the system of suckling with concentrated supplementation (126 g/day). The highest income was provided by the animals submitted to the intensive system of suckling with concentrate. The gross margin for the two centenarians was positive, that is, revenues are higher than the effective operating cost, allowing us to conclude that the activity is paying off and will survive, at least in the short term. The diet of kids using concentrate provided better dry matter intake, greater weight gain and consequently presented better economic indicators.

The use of animals from dairy farms is an alternative to meat production since it provides an increment of total income for farmers. This study aims to evaluate the performance of Holstein calves finished in two feeding systems (feedlot or pasture). Forty-three animals with 58 days old and 57 kg were divided in two treatments: 23 animals finished in feedlot with corn silage plus concentrate based on corn and soybean meal (40:60); 20 animals kept in cultivated pastures according to the period of the year: Italian ryegrass (Lolium multiflorum) and pearl millet (Pennisetum americanum) with supplementation with the same feedlot-concentrate at 1% body weight. Animals were slaughtered with 200 kg. Dry matter and nutrient intake were determined, with the use of chromium oxide for estimating pasture intake. Feedlot animals had greater total intake and total digestible nutrients, resulting in higher average daily gain (0.949 vs 0.694 kg day -1 ). Crude protein intake, neutral detergent fiber and feed conversion did not show significant differences. Holstein calves have improved performance when finished in feedlot.
