Overcrowding, poor ventilation, transportation and stress under these conditions can produce heat stroke, says Dr. P.O. Oliver, swine desease consultant, Ontario Ministry of Agriculture and Food. • Both temperature and humidity are involved in heat stroke. Pigs do not sweat to any great degree and body heat is lost mostly through the lungs. With a layer of fat as insulation, a pig is at quite a disadvantage during very hot, humid weather, Symptoms of heat stroke include panting, slobbering and a high body temperature. In some cases the animals are restless and appear in a frenzy. Pregnant animals may abort. To avoid heat stroke, Dr. Oliver offers the following recommendations: Provide good air movement in barns, Do not overcrowd in pens or trucks and make sure that the ventilation is adequate, Avoid handling or moving pigs except in the early morning or evening. If the pigs are housed outside. shade should be provided. Sprays and mists can also be used to cool the animals. Tithe animal suffers from heat stroke, treatment is required,. Bathing the. animal with cod), water and improving ventilation helps prevent deaths, says Dr. Oliver. However, a veterinarian should be called to administer medication as well. I During hot humid weather, feed a laxative diet, provide lots of water and be partieularily careful when the pigs are transported or handled. These steps sliould help to reduce the affects of an adverse environment caused by hot weather conditions. Safety tips Dust particles float through the air easily on a hot dry summer day.
