From time to time stock are unable to obtain adequate nutrition from pasture and conserved feeds. This can be due to cold, wet conditions in spring, summer drought, poor quality hay and silage and many other reasons. Other stresses from pregnancy, metabolic disorders, calving and high milk produc- tion can compound the basic problem. On top of all this, soils that are acid or out of balance due to not enough fertiliser or too much fertiliser make the problem even worse. The overall result is stock that are under stress, perform poorly and are prone to metabolic and other diseases. The main problem is often a LACK OF MINERALS, and particularly TRACE ELEMENTS, which are required by the rumen and gut bacte- ria as much as by the animals themselves. A lack of minerals and trace elements is particularly damaging to young stock and to high producing animals.

Abstract: Mineral reservoirs or salt licks are commonlyuse used by wildlife to regulate the concentration of salt and minerals in their bodies. Salt lick utilisation is known to be influenced by the chemical composition, but information on their physical properties, particularly vegetation surrounding the salt licks is scarce. In this study, physical factors and wildlife utilisation at two natural salt licks (SPU and SPS) located in Perak, Malaysia, were determined. Wildlife visitation data were retrieved from camera traps. SPU exhibits two reservoirs represented by rocky and clay substrate, with minimally dense vegetation dominated by hardwood species and climbers. SPS encompasses muddy topsoil, open canopy cover, with highly dense forest floor vegetation. The wildlife survey shows a higher frequency of visitation in SPS, especially by ungulates, potentially due to dense understorey foliage that provides foraging sites for these animals.

Importance of Natural Mineral Licks to Ungulates
IMPORTANCE OF NATURAL MINERAL LICKS TO UNGULATES A Literature Review by Nancy Tankersley, Game Biologist Alaska Department of Fish and Game, Division of Game September 1987 INTRODUCTION Natural mineral licks are commonly wet, muddy areas fed by springs where mineralized water and/or soil is consumed, but some licks are areas of relatively dry fine-grained soil. Licks are often heavily used in the spring and summer by ungulates and other herbivores. Lick use has been recognized as an important feature in the life history of many ungulate populations and has been studied in North America, including Alaska, as well as other parts of the world. Although no study as proven that mineral lick use is essential to any wildlife population, mineral elements commonly found in licks are essential to the health of wild ungulates. Elements and compounds found anomalously high in licks compared to nearby non-lick sites include sodium, potassium, magnesium, calcium, copper, iron, manganese, chromium, chloride, sulfate and bicarbonate. LICK COMPONENTS AND IMPORTANCE Identification of the source or sources of lick attraction is still a matter of debate in the literature. Many studies have shown that the essential macro-element sodium (Na) is relatively abundant in licks and is selectively sought by ungulates (Stockstad et al. 1953, Denton and Sabine 1961, Dalke et al. 1965, Knight and Mudge 1967, Hebert and Cowan 1971, Weeks and Kirkpatrick 1976, Fraser and Reardon 1980, Tankersley and Gasaway 1983). Few terrestrial green plants are known to require or store Na (Epstein 1972) which is an essential mammalian macronutrient important f.or acid-base balance, fluid volume, nerve impulse transmission, bone structure, and growth (Forbes 1962, Scoggins et al.

Mineral / Salt Licks
Chapter 2 Species-Diversity Utilization of Salt Lick Sites at Borgu Sector of Kainji Lake National Park, Nigeria A. G. Lameed and Jenyo-Oni Adetola Additional information is available at the end of the chapter http://dx.doi.org/10.5772/51089 1. Introduction Mineral elements occur in the living tissues or soil in either large or small quantities. Those that occur in large quantities are called macro/major elements while those that occur in small quantities are called micro/minor/trace elements. These macro elements are required in large amount and the micro are required in small amount (Underwood, 1977, Alloway, 1990,) They occur in the tissues of plants and animals in varied concentrations. The magnitude of this concentration varies greatly among different living organisms and part of the organisms (W.B.E, 1995). Although most of the naturally occurring mineral elements are found in the animal tissues, many are present merely because they are constituents of the animal’s food and may not have essential function in the metabolism of the animals. Hence essential mineral elements refer to as mineral elements are those which had been proven to have a metabolic role in the body (McDonald, 1987). The essential minerals elements are necessary to life for work such as enzyme and hormone metabolisms (W.B.E, 1995). Enzymes are activated by trace elements known as metallo enzymes (Mertz, 1996). Ingestion or uptake of minerals that are deficient, inbalanced, or excessively high in a particular mineral element induces changes in the functions, activities, or concentration of that element in the body tissue or fluids.

Domesticated Equine Species and Their Derived Hybrids Differ in Their Fecal Microbiota J
Edwards et al. Animal Microbiome (2020) 2:8 Animal Microbiome https://doi.org/10.1186/s42523-020-00027-7 RESEARCH ARTICLE Open Access Domesticated equine species and their derived hybrids differ in their fecal microbiota J. E. Edwards1*, A. Schennink1,2, F. Burden3, S. Long3, D. A. van Doorn4,5, W. F. Pellikaan6, J. Dijkstra6, E. Saccenti7 and H. Smidt1* Abstract Background: Compared to horses and ponies, donkeys have increased degradation of dietary fiber. The longer total mean retention time of feed in the donkey gut has been proposed to be the basis of this, because of the increased time available for feed to be acted upon by enzymes and the gut microbiota. However, differences in terms of microbial concentrations and/or community composition in the hindgut may also underpin the increased degradation of fiber in donkeys. Therefore, a study was conducted to assess if differences existed between the fecal microbiota of pony, donkey and hybrids derived from them (i.e. pony × donkey) when fed the same forage diet. Results: Fecal community composition of prokaryotes and anaerobic fungi significantly differed between equine types. The relative abundance of two bacterial genera was significantly higher in donkey compared to both pony and pony x donkey: Lachnoclostridium 10 and ‘probable genus 10’ from the Lachnospiraceae family. The relative abundance of Piromyces was significantly lower in donkey compared to pony × donkey, with pony not significantly differing from either of the other equine types. In contrast, the uncultivated genus SK3 was only found in donkey (4 of the 8 animals). The number of anaerobic fungal OTUs was also significantly higher in donkey than in the other two equine types, with no significant differences found between pony and pony × donkey.

I. Department of Animal Production and Health, Federal Polytechnic, Pmb 35, Mubi, Adamawa State, Nigeria *Corresponding Author: Kubkomawa, H. I, Department of Animal Production and Health, Federal Polytechnic, Pmb 35, Mubi, Adamawa State, Nigeria Abstract: The objective of the paper was to review the use of supplementary conventional mineral licks in improving the productivity of ruminant animals in tropical Africa. Conventional mineral licks have been extensively used by livestock farmers for years in many developing and developed countries especially, mixtures of liquid molasses and urea, which provides fermentable nitrogen and are good sources of minerals. However, small scale farmers have rarely benefitted from these supplements, usually because of difficulties of handling these in small quantities. Molasses in the liquid form is difficult to transport (requiring expensive tanker trucks), to store (requiring tanks), to handle (as it is highly viscous) and to distribute to animals (as troughs or other receptacles are needed).Minerals are needed for the proper development and maintenance of bones, muscles, circulatory systems and even the nervous systems. Salt is made up of sodium and chloride, but it’s also an ideal carrier for a variety of essential trace minerals like calcium, magnesium, phosphorus and selenium. Sodium helps in controlling the blood’s pH levels, and chloride helps in digestion and keeps the blood acid levels balanced.

Director, Division APPROVED: Vice Chancellor for Research and Advanced Study Date ABSTRACT Natural mineral licks were studied to determine their ecological importance to moose and their use to wildlife managers in Alaska. Chemical analyses and observations of lick use indicated that licks are an important source of sodium for moose in early summer. Most lick use occurred in late evening, unlike the diurnal activity patterns of moose not at licks. Despite high densities of moose in lick areas during early summer, predators did not hunt there. Estimating the sex composition of moose population(s) at licks may not be feasible because there was a disproportionately high rate of lick use by bulls, and a seasonal offset in use by bulls and cows at the licks studied. Estimating the number of calves born each spring from counts at licks was not found to be feasible because calves did not always accompany their dams to the licks. iii TABLE OF CONTENTS Page ABSTRACT ••••••••.
