What is the cause of protein-energy malnutrition?

Answer 1

The main causes of malnutrition in domestic animals include negligence on the part of the owner to provide animals, be they pets or livestock, the necessary water and feed (and salt mineral for the ungulates and equids that live on farms) for them to live and survive. Malnutrition can also be caused by digestive disorder or disease (like Johnes Disease in cattle, or tapeworms in the majority of animals, including humans) to make them get thinner and thinner despite the fact they have adequate food and water in front of them at all times.

Malnutrition in people is also the result of poverty and war.
