Behavior and pituitary-adrenal function in large white and Meishan pigs.

Domestic animal endocrinology - 1 May 1999

Désautés C, Sarrieau A, Caritez J C, Mormède P

Abstract excerpt

Six-wk-old piglets of both sexes from European Large White (LW, n = 36) and Chinese Meishan (MS, n = 24) breeds were individually exposed to a novel environment, a stressful stimulation. Behavioral and pituitary-adrenal reactivity were investigated. When compared with LW, MS pigs displayed low locomotion (18.5 +/- 2.2 vs. 41.0 +/- 3.8 squares crossed/10 min; P < 0.0001), and defecation scores (0.58 +/- 0.15 vs....
