In sheep and goats, heat stroke can result from high temperatures, leading to excessive panting. To prevent this, provide shade, good ventilation, ample water, and consider adjusting feeding times to cooler parts of the day.

Common causes of Heat Stoke, Panting disease in Cattle include:

  • High Temperatures

    Exposure to hot weather or sudden heat waves without adequate means of cooling down can lead to heat stress and subsequent heat stroke.

  • Lack of Shade or Ventilation

    Insufficient shelter or poor ventilation in their living environment can increase their susceptibility to heat stress.

  • Dehydration

    Inadequate access to clean, fresh water can lead to dehydration, exacerbating their vulnerability to heat-related issues.

  • Heavy Wool Coat

    Animals with thick or heavy wool coats, especially during hot weather, struggle to regulate their body temperature effectively, contributing to heat stress and panting.
