Abstract
Sparse scientific evidence of cattle in confined environments, like feedlot dirt pens, report on increased importance of digital dermatitis (DD) besides foot rot as an infectious cause of lameness. Therefore, we investigated the associations between DD presence and locomotion, gait traits, feet and leg conformation, and hygiene related risk factors in feedlot cattle to provide the industry with clear guidelines on identification of DD affected cattle.
