Knowing how to safely and effectively lead, restrain, and otherwise handle livestock in the field and in farm facilities is critical to being a successful livestock farmer. Renowned animal behaviorist and best-selling author Temple Grandin's guide to livestock handling for small farmers includes her own unique understanding of what motivates the behaviors of cows, pigs, goats, and sheep. She explains herd dynamics, pecking order, and what species are compatible with others in the field. She also explains the distinctive fears, instincts, and memories of each species and then applies this understanding to safe, humane handling practices. Full-colour photographs teach how to "read" an animal's behavioural signals. Illustrations are included for facility layouts that are most appropriate for small farms, including corrals, chutes, crowd pens, loading ramps, head gates, and more.
