This depends on the breed. Cattle of the subspecies Bos primigenius indicus can withstand hot tropical climates better than those of the European origin (subspecies Bos primigenius taurus), and likely equally as well as carabao, which are also adapted to hot tropical climates where they originate.
What else can I help you with?
Why do cattle resist the heat of the sun?
Most do not. There are many breeds of cattle that do not nor cannot resist the heat of the sun without succumbing to it. Black-coloured thin-hided cattle are more apt to become heat stressed than those who are lighter coloured and/or have thicker hides. Angus cattle are less adapted to the southern USA, for example, than other breeds like Herefords, Gelbvieh or Brahman.
Why do cattle that have long ears do better in your hot summer climates than cattle breeds that have normal ear length?
It's just how that breed has adapted to the heat, and can handle it better.
Can cattle get too hot?
Yes. When this happens cattle can get heat stroke or heat exhaustion, and, just like with humans, they can die from it.
How the rocks can resist the heat and cold?
Rocks can resist heat and cold due to their high thermal conductivity and density. This allows them to absorb and release heat slowly, helping them withstand temperature changes. Additionally, the mineral composition and structure of rocks contribute to their ability to resist extreme temperatures.
How does the R value work in determining the effectiveness of insulation materials?
The R value measures how well insulation materials resist heat flow. A higher R value indicates better insulation effectiveness, as it means the material can better prevent heat from escaping or entering a building.
What is thermal risistance?
Thermal resistance is a measure of a material's ability to resist the flow of heat through it. It is used to quantify how well a material can insulate against heat transfer. A lower thermal resistance value indicates better thermal insulation properties.
What is the average heat cycle for dairy cattle?
It's the same for all cattle: they cycle every 17 to 24 days, with the heat periods themselves lasting for only 24 hours.
How often do cattle come into heat?
Females come into heat every 21 days, plus or minus.
Which is the most heat tolerant breed of cattle?
The Brahman breed is the most heat tolerant, originating from India.
What is the significance of the r value of cellulose in determining its thermal insulation properties?
The r value of cellulose is significant in determining its thermal insulation properties because it measures the material's ability to resist heat flow. A higher r value indicates better insulation, as it means the material can better prevent heat from escaping or entering a space.
What is the most heat tolerant breed of dairy cattle?
Milking Shorthorn's.
What type of cows breeds in the Philippines?
In the Philippines, several cattle breeds are raised, with the primary ones being the Philippine Native cattle, which are well-adapted to local conditions. Other notable breeds include the Brahman, known for its heat tolerance and resistance to diseases, and the Jersey and Holstein breeds, which are primarily raised for dairy production. Crossbreeding is also common to enhance productivity and adaptability. Additionally, the Carabao, a water buffalo, plays a significant role in agriculture and is often included in discussions about livestock in the country.
