Abstract

Animal can respond to any environmental or non-environmental stress through several physiological mechanisms such as respiratory rate, heart rate and rectal temperature, which are excellent parameter to quantify the heat tolerance in any animal. The aim of the present study is to evaluate the effect of the variation of ambient temperature on the physiological mechanisms of the goat as well as using a geographical information system in the present study is to facilitate the spatial component of goat physiological parameters to be included in the reporting and analysis of animal health data. Different physiological parameters of Black Bengal goats have not any significant variation among the different study points within a specific region however these physiological parameters are significantly higher during in the pre-monsoon than the post monsoon season irrespective of the region. For the present study, the ability of GIS to link graphic and non-graphic data facilitates prevailing analysis of different non-spatial distribution and related issues. This model can be applied to animal disease control as an integral component of supporting system concerning decisions in the field of veterinary science.
