  1. 1. Behavioural Responses of Ungulates to Sound Systems : can simulated risk influence behaviour?

    University essay from SLU/Dept. of Wildlife, Fish and Environmental Studies

    Author : Carolin Veronika Berndt; [2021]
    Keywords : ungulates; landscape of fear; behavioural response; predation risk; playback experiment; ABR; management strategies;

    Abstract : Increasing ungulate densities all over Europe are intensifying the ongoing human-wildlife conflict, embodied by mainly economical losses through damages in forestry and agriculture. Given the current circumstances, farmers and forest owners prefer a decrease in ungulate numbers through direct population control, whereas other stakeholders, such as hunters, wildlife watchers or photographers, prefer higher wildlife numbers.

    Keywords : recombinant food proteins; protein shift; protein functionality; plant-based; meat analogs; dairy; food technology; Technology and Engineering;

    Abstract : Increased awareness regarding nutrition, environmental sustainability, and animal welfare has sparked a trend to shift away from animal proteins. The phenomenon is referred to as the protein shift and has resulted in a higher demand for alternative protein sources. READ MORE

  4. 3. Tidpunkten för hjärtstopp hos ren vid slakt samt frekvensen av muskelsammandragningar under avblodning

    University essay from SLU/Dept. of Animal Environment and Health

    Author : Kristina Kristensen; [2021]
    Keywords : Rangifer tarandus; slakteri; avlivning; välfärd; hjärtstillestånd; död; muskelkontraktioner;

    Abstract : I detta examensarbete studerades hur lång tid det tar för ren vid slakt att uppnå klinisk död (hjärtstopp) efter påbörjad avblodning samt om det skiljer sig mellan kalvar respektive vuxna renar. Vidare har i denna studie fenomenet muskelsammandragningar hos ren undersökts genom att notera frekvensen av dessa samt vilka renar det förekommer hos. READ MORE

  5. 4. Betydelsen av övernattning på slakteri för förekomsten av slaktskador hos gris och nötkreatur

    Abstract : The presence of birds in an ecosystem is often a good indicator of the overall biodiversity. Since birds can be hard to see, their sounds are often used instead to measure their presence. To automatically detect birds the most common method is to use a time-frequency representation together with a convolutional neural network. READ MORE
