Abstract
RUMINANT animals are adapted to survival in adverse nutritional conditions. The alimentary tract has an expanded portion, the rumen or fore-stomach, where extensive microbial fermentation makes available the energy of bulky foods and fibrous materials before the food passes into the rest of the digestive tract. Extensive degradation of dietary protein, however, occurs in the rumen to give large amounts of ammonia and fatty acids.
