Popis: |
Noice may be a potential stressor in intensive animal rearing because of high number of noice-producing animals, needs for more intensive ventilation system and feeding and excrement removal lines. All this may result in relatively high level of noice that affects not only animals but also the tending personnel. High sensitivity to noise levels have been observed in pigs with some potential impact on their behaviour. In our study we measured exposure of pigs to noise in 3 houses for three categories of pigs, farrowing house, house for weanlings and house for sows before mating and after confirmation of gravidity. Although our measurements failed to identify high exposure of pigs to noise, this issue should be monitored further to avoid unnecessary stress in this very sensitive species of animals. |
