“…Cattle calls contain information on individuality due to high levels of inter-cow variability in the acoustic characteristic of their vocalizations. This allows for each animal to be identified by the 'uniqueness' of their call [138][139][140][141]. Cattle are herd animals, and isolation from their conspecifics results in physiological changes in the animal such as increased heart rate, salivary cortisol, urination and defecation rates, and an increase in vocal responses [142].…”

“…The individuality of vocalisations Not only is there high variability in the propensity of cattle to express calls , but numerous studies have also reported high inter-cow variability in the acoustic characteristics of vocalisations (Barfield et al, 1994;Yajuvendra et al, 2013;Padilla de la Torre et al, 2016). This variability between cattle surpasses any variability within cattle and contributes to the individual distinctiveness of the calls (Kiley, 1972).…”

“…Vocalisations of cattle are typically harmonic in nature and generally range between 1.3 and 1.5 s in duration (Kiley, 1972;Padilla de la Torre et al, 2015). A multitude of their acoustic parameters show individual distinctiveness, the most significant ones being the mean F0 and its range, formant frequencies, jitter and shimmer, noise-to-harmonic ratio, number of pulses and degree of voice break (Yajuvendra et al, 2013). These relate to the source and filter parameters as previously explained.…”

“…Various technical approaches have been used to assess the vocalisations of animals, particularly those of farm animals. Yajuvendra et al (2013) chose to detect individual cows by applying speech analysis techniques to samples of cattle vocalisations. This approach requires a set of sample vocalisations for each animal, so that the selected parameters can be recorded.…”

“…However, while the assignment to a specific individual animal (henceforth termed 'caller identification') is not essential for cough detection in pigs, it is essential for oestrus detection. Yajuvendra et al (2013) tried to solve the problem of caller identification by using individual structural characteristics in vocalisations. Similar techniques have been used in wildlife species (e.g., in blue monkeys: Mielke and Zuberbühler, 2013).…”
