Heat stress, known as panting disease in cattle, arises when cows struggle to regulate their body temperature in hot, humid conditions. Signs include excessive panting, increased drooling, reduced feed intake, lethargy, elevated respiration, and higher body temperature. Preventing heat stress involves providing shade, ample clean water, and implementing cooling methods like fans or misters to mitigate high temperatures and ensure the well-being of the cattle during hot weather.
