For mange år siden fik dyretelepatør, terapeut og clairvoyant Ditte Young at vide, at hun en dag ville få himlen og jorden til at mødes. Et arbejde, som hun ikke vidste, hvordan ville blive muligt. I arbejdet med hestene begyndte hun at forstå, hvor stor en udvikling der er i den sjælerejse, man som rytter gennemgår sammen med sin hest. En rejse, hvor to sjæle mødes og spejler hinanden på godt og ondt. Et udviklingsarbejde, som kan være smertefuldt og bekymrende, men også fyldt med latter, smil, sammenhold og kærlighed. Derfor gør det alt arbejdet og det hårde slid med hestene det hele værd. Med dem kan du opleve et NU og en mening med livet, hvis du er stille og lytter til, hvad hesten hvisker til dig. Bogen handler om, hvilken rolle hestene spiller i menneskets personlige og åndelige udvikling. Hvordan det kan lade sig gøre at kommunikere med dem uden sprog. Du vil også kunne læse om, hvad der sker med heste i forbindelse med en aflivning, om reinkarnation og om sjælens rejse til det evige liv. Du kan læse om evidens og også om den store modstand, Ditte Young mødte på sin vej i et for hende ukendt land, da hun ikke selv havde haft med heste at gøre, men som hun med årene fik et indgående kendskab til. I Ditte Youngs arbejde med hestene kæmper hun for, at du som rytter stoler på det, du mærker – alt, hvad du mærker, er netop sandheden for dig. Om forfatteren Ditte Young er uddannet psykoterapeut, clairvoyant, kranio-sakral-terapeut og healer og så er hun en af Danmarks mest anerkendte dyretelepatører. Hun holder foredrag, konsultationer, kurser og uddannelse både i ind- og udland. Hun arbejder med alle typer af hesteejere både fritidsryttere og eliteryttere fra landsholdet, inden for dressur, spring, military, western og meget mere og over det meste af verden.

A revelation' SATHNAM SANGHERA'Thrilling and eye-opening' LEWIS DARTNELL'Science and history at its best' MARK HONIGSBAUM'Unpicks everything we thought we knew... Mind blowing' CAL FLYNIn this revelatory book, Dr Jonathan Kennedy argues that germs have shaped humanity at every stage, from the first success of Homo sapiens over the equally intelligent Neanderthals to the fall of Rome and the rise of Islam.How did an Indonesian volcano help cause the Black Death, setting Europe on the road to capitalism? How could 168 men extract the largest ransom in history from an opposing army of eighty thousand? And why did the Industrial Revolution lead to the birth of the modern welfare state?The latest science reveals that infectious diseases are not just something that happens to us, but a fundamental part of who we are. Indeed, the only reason humans don't lay eggs is that a virus long ago inserted itself into our DNA, and there are as many bacteria in your body as there are human cells. We have been thinking about the survival of the fittest all wrong: evolution is not simply about human strength and intelligence, but about how we live and thrive in a world dominated by microbes.By exploring the startling intimacy of our relationship with infectious diseases, Kennedy shows how they have been responsible for some of the seismic revolutions of the past 50,000 years. Provocative and brimming with insight, Pathogenesis transforms our understanding of the human story, revealing how the crisis of a pandemic can offer vital opportunities for change.

Gareth Steel wants you to understand vets in a way you never could have before.How it feels to watch a healed dog bound into their owner's arms. The joy of breathing life into the fluid-filled lungs of a newborn calf after a difficult labour. The satisfaction of rescuing a distressed sheep from the high-tide line.What it's like to work 100-hour weeks for less than the minimum wage. How it can scar your soul to euthanize a beloved puppy with its grieving family beside you. The pressure of having to know such a diverse range of medicine, that one hour you can be protecting yourself from a dangerously distressed horse and the next you can be performing delicate surgery on a tiny mouse. How all these pressures have built up to the extent that vets have four times the national suicide rate, and why.Gareth Steel has been a vet for nearly twenty years and has worked all over the UK, across both rural and city practices, dealing with all manner of household pets and farm animals. This is his fascinating raw account of just how involved the job is and the toll the extreme emotions that come with it can take, but it also a heart-warming and often humorous story of the desperate lengths we go to for the love of animals.

Melatonin is an indolamine derived from the amino acid tryptophan, produced in the pineal gland and characterized by its ability to sequester reactive oxygen species (ROS). The aim of this study was to evaluate the effect of melatonin supplementation to Tris-Gema diluent on the cryopreservation of bovine semen. Fifty-four ejaculates from Guzerá bulls were used. The semen was diluted in TRIS-gema, with the addition of melatonin, at the following experimental concentrations: control group - 0¿M; Melatonin - 10¿M; Melatonin - 100¿M; Melatonin - 200¿M. They were then filled into 0.25mL straws and cryopreserved. After thawing at 37°C for 30 seconds, the aliquots were analyzed for the Rapid Thermal Resistance Test (RTT), plasma membrane (PM) integrity, acrosome (Ac), mitochondrial membrane potential (MMP) and sperm kinetics. The percentages of motility were higher (p

A study was undertaken for the reproductive parameters of Malnad Gidda in its native tract to assess the response of repeat breeding Malnad Gidda cows to oestrus synchronization.Various reproductive and productive parameters of Malnad Gidda cows were studied in three taluks of Shivamogga district Tirthahalli, Sagar and Hosanagar. The parameters like age at puberty of 25.15±0.29 months, age at first calving of 39.32±2.99 months, dry period of 6.22±1.26 months, calving interval of 13.68±2.55 months, gestation period of 282.14±9.03 days, service period of 136.73±10.03 days, lactation length of 258.22 ± 10.95 days, milk yield per day of 3.69±0.32 kg, total milk yield of 227.19±8.31 kg, days to reach peak milk yield of 46.19±0.51 day, birth weight of the new born calf of 8.71±0.45 kg, time taken for expulsion of fetal membranes of placenta of 4.63±0.39 hours, onset of postpartum oestrus of 77.64±1.98 days, duration of oestrus period of 15.25±1.67 hours, time of ovulation of 15.15 ± 1.7 hours, and length of oestrus cycle of 22.63±2.96 days were recorded.

Visceral leishmaniasis is an endemic zoonosis in several countries, including Brazil. It is caused by Leishmania sp. and transmitted by the bite of Lutzomyia longipalpis. Apoptosis is a mechanism for the controlled elimination of cells and is important in resolving the inflammatory process. Apoptosis plays a role in the pathogenesis of many infections. The role of neutrophils in VL is still unclear, but it is known that parasitized neutrophils, like macrophages, are refractory to death by apoptosis. Thus, the survival of leishmania in neutrophils and their subsequent phagocytosis by macrophages seems to contribute to the progression of the infection. The aim of this study is to evaluate the possible relationship between apoptosis, inflammation and parasite load in dogs naturally infected with Leishmania.

Normalerweise werden in der tierärztlichen Praxis Wunden, die durch zweite Absicht heilen, mit künstlichen Verbänden geschützt, die im Wesentlichen aus Gaze bestehen, die mit erweichenden oder antiseptischen Substanzen imprägniert ist. Es wurden verschiedene Studien durchgeführt, um eine Substanz zu finden, die die Auswirkungen von Verunreinigungen verringert und den Heilungsprozess begünstigt. In Anbetracht des Anliegens, Alternativen zur Beschleunigung des Heilungsprozesses bei Kleintieren anzubieten, wurde in dieser Studie die Wirkung von zwei pflanzlichen Arzneimitteln untersucht: Ringelblume (Calendula officinalis) und Sonnenblumenöl (Helianthus annus) auf Wunden, die in zweiter Absicht geheilt wurden, indem die klinische Entwicklung sowie mikrobiologische und histopathologische Aspekte bewertet wurden.

Newcastle Disease (ND) is a disease of viral aetiology that spreads rapidly and affects various species of domestic and wild birds. Among these species, the domestic pigeon (Columba livia) has been incriminated as a host and spreader of the disease not only to production birds, but also to wild birds. Little is known about the ability of pigeons previously infected with a pathogenic strain of Newcastle Disease Virus (NDV) to transmit the disease to chickens. In view of this, and considering that Brazilian poultry farming plays an important role in the country's trade balance, it is imperative to begin studies aimed at expanding knowledge about the epizootiology of NDV, linking pigeons and chickens subjected to experimental infection and vaccination against strains of NDV. With this information, the real role played by the pigeon in the epidemiological chain of ND can be measured, especially with regard to the spread of the disease to chickens, as well as adding information with regard to immunoprophylaxis measures, enabling better control of the disease.

Normally, in veterinary practice, wounds that will heal by second intention are protected using artificial dressings, which basically consist of gauze impregnated with emollient or antiseptic substances. Various studies have been carried out to find a substance that reduces the effects of contamination and favours the healing process. Considering the concern to offer alternatives to speed up the healing process in small animals, the purpose of this study was to evaluate the effect of two herbal medicines: calendula (Calendula officinalis) and sunflower oil (Helianthus annus) on wounds that healed by second intention by evaluating the clinical evolution, microbiological and histopathological aspects.

I cortili delle famiglie delle regioni rurali sono ricchi di alimenti naturali, che possono essere introdotti nella catena alimentare umana convertendoli in uova e carne di pollo nutrizionalmente equilibrati, adottando l'allevamento di pollame da cortile (BYP). L'allevamento di varietà di pollo migliorate, che sopravvivono e producono un maggior numero di uova, può aumentare la disponibilità di uova e di carne nelle aree rurali, incrementando così lo stato nutrizionale della popolazione. I volatili da cortile migliorati si sono dimostrati validi negli allevamenti di ricerca e i frutti di tali germoplasmi devono essere portati sul campo per una più ampia applicazione. Sebbene siano stati rilasciati per migliorare le popolazioni rurali, questi ceppi non vengono adottati dalla comunità agricola in generale, soprattutto a Puducherry. Lo studio è stato condotto con l'obiettivo di incoraggiare le famiglie rurali ad allevare il BYP migliorato e di verificarne l'impatto sulle famiglie.

Working with trauma for both horses and humans can be quite a complex matter, as everyone responds to trauma differently. Trauma impacts one's life in a way that can sometimes seem irreparable, but there is hope for healing. "Find Your Fight" is all about understanding the science behind horrific circumstances, techniques to use throughout the healing journey, comparing the horse/human recovery process, and learning how to live a healthy life after enduring traumatic experiences.

This study describes the main predisposing characteristics related to the presence of ectoparasites on poultry farms. Information from the environment, the birds and the ectoparasites was analyzed and results were obtained that made it possible to qualify them as important aspects in the epidemiology of these parasites on laying poultry farms.

In Algeria, the poultry sector is the animal production sector that has seen the most spectacular growth since the 1980s, thanks to government intervention (Alloui, 2011). According to the FAO (2009), poultry production in Algeria is the country's largest animal production sector. Developing this sector is the best way of meeting the population's growing need for animal protein as quickly as possible (Harkati et al., 2011). The aim of this document is to highlight the epidemiological situation of the main poultry diseases in the world, which will serve as a database for the various players in the sector, i.e. veterinarians, researchers, breeders and the authorities concerned.

World aquaculture is growing more than any other primary activity sector, among other factors stimulated by the growing population and the demand for healthy, nutrient-rich food. Taking advantage of existing water resources has led to the development of fish farming, with fish reared in net pens, dugouts or weirs. It is a lower-cost investment alternative that is quicker to implement and is seen as an agribusiness capable of improving the social, environmental and economic conditions of a region. Increased susceptibility to parasitic, bacteriological and infectious diseases has caused major losses in fish farming. The occurrence of parasites and bacteria is one of the biggest causes of losses in industrial and sport fish farming, and there is also the fact that the aquatic environment facilitates the reproduction, dispersal and survival of pathogens. Research into fish health is scarce, especially when it relates to native species.
