Dr. Joe Stookey, professor emeritus from the Western College of Veterinary Medicine joins the podcast this week. Joe has spent his career researching various aspects of animal behavior with a focus on beef cattle. He joins me to discuss the problem of mis-mothering in calving cows. It can be a frustrating situation and Joe gives some practical tips on how to deal with these situations. Just a quick heads up, there were some technical difficulties in recording this episode and there are a couple of segments in the podcast where the sound quality is not great for my microphone. Hopefully you can get the gist of the conversation, but apologies for the segments where the sound isn't great.
