Abstract
Lameness affects approximately one of every six cattle in feedlots and accounts for 70% of all sales of non-performing cattle. Salvaged lame feedlot cattle only recover half of their original purchase price, and on average have approximately three month production costs included in their expense before salvage. This paper outlines prevention, treatment and management considerations for the more common causes of feedlot lameness.
