Abstract
Undetected injury of horses sustained during road transport to slaughter is a welfare concern. This study evaluated digital infrared thermography (DT) for the detection of ante-mortem bruising in horses following transport to a slaughter plant. The sensitivity and specificity of the DT camera for the detection of bruises following transport to a slaughter plant was evaluated. DT images were obtained from 93 horses (2-3 horses per load; 40 loads)...
