| Sammendrag: | Malnutrition was studied in farmed red deer. Malnourished
animals did not recover from winter energy loss, remained in poor condition
throughout the summer, and some died of starvation. Liver analysis
of one hind that died of malnutrition showed selenium and cobalt
deficiency. This hind was cachectic and heavily infected with lungworm
(Dictyocaulus spp). Serum levels of thirty-three parameters of
hinds suffering from malnutrition (n=4) were compared to values from
free-ranging reference hinds (n=10). Hinds suffering from malnutrition
had significantly higher values (p<0.01) of glutamate dehydrogenase,
lactate dehydrogenase, globulin, alpha 2 globulin, beta globulin,
gamma globulin, urea and copper. The farmed hinds, however, had
been fed supplementary copper and did not suffer from deficiency.
Malnourished hinds had significantly lower values of albumin, creatinine
and zinc. These parameters can be used to diagnose malnutrition
in red deer hinds. Hinds suffering of malnutrition recovered completely
within two months after treatment with 20 mL Becoplex vet® i.m.,
10 mL Selenevit vet® i.m. and 10 mL Ivomec® pour-on vet. |
