17 Many diseases that cause abortions are zoonotic. Use disposable plastic gloves, wash your hands. In case of abortion, call veterinarian for diagnostics and: Identify aborting cows, isolate from herd Save fetuses and fresh placentas. Refrigerate, do not freeze unless is frozen when found, then keep frozen; wrap in plastic. Do not cut or wash fetus or placenta Maintain herd vaccination history, movement of cattle to and from premises, and management and origin of bulls. Keep repro history of cows, including number of abortions, conception rate, and approximate breeding dates. Guide to determine age of aborted fetus: Two months gestation = mouse Seven months = fine hair on body and legs Three months = rat Eight months = complete hair coat Four months = small cat Nine months = incisor teeth erupted Five months = large cat Six months = small dog (hair around eyes, tail, muzzle) 2013 Cow/Calf Meetings 17
