Do You Know What Is
Normal For You Animal?
You must know how an ani
mal looks, eats, sleeps and acts
when it is normal before you
can diagnose any sickness or
abnormality, says Dr. Robert
C. Hammond. University of
Maryland Extension veterinari
an.
Untie to be one of the tools of
the economic entomologist, agro
nomist, and plant pathologist.
Rapid expansion of agriculture,
in developing countries especial
ly will require agricultural
chemicals foi pest control to
help these nations become more
self-reliant There are many pest
problems tor which the use of
chemicals provides the only cur
rently acceptable solution

“Knowledge of ‘what’s nor
mal’ is so basic, that all diagnos
is of disease is based on it," he
continues. “Learn it well, and
remember it,”
A cow with a temperature of
102 degrees P would be extre
mely ill, but 107 degrees would
be normal for a chicken.
A human with a temperature
of 102.5 degrees would be - far
from normal, and - yet this is
quite normal for a pig
Nearly all animals are dif
ferent and we must know what
is normal to evaluate the pre
sent condition.
Think about terms used to
describe symptoms of disease
says Dr. Hammond, “loss of ap
petite, increased respiration,
rapid pulse, diarrhea, dull hair
coat, drooping ears, anxious ex
pression, stilted gait, reluctant
to move and abdominal breath
ing. None of these have any
meaning except to someone who
is familiar with the animal
when it is normal.”
All of our aids to diagnosis
our thermometers, stethoscopes,
laboratory tests, x-rays, and
even advanced surgical techni
ques, would be of no value if we
were not able to use the normal
animal as a standard.
Veterinary students spend
most of the,ir first two years in
Veterinary School . studying
what is normal. The 4-H Veteri
nary Science Program devotes
all of Unit I to “The Normal
Animal.”
