• Heat stress

  Heat stress General information Heat stress occurs when the body of an animal or a human generates more heat or is exposed to more heat than it can release.

In humans and animals, warming up or cooling down is inevitably accompanied by restrictions in other body functions, such as a weakening of the immune system, reduced growth, decreased fertility, lower milk production, higher heart rate, reduced kidney functio...

However, animal welfare has so far hardly been taken into account in the ASC standard.
