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.
