About Cattle Medicine

GoConqr Original

What this page covers

This page collects study material on diseases and problems of cattle. Much of it is built around common herd issues: lameness, mastitis, calf scour, skin disease, sudden death and bovine viral diarrhoea. There are also sets on cardiovascular, urinary, liver, nervous and abdominal conditions, plus tick-borne diseases such as babesiosis and Theileria.

Where to start

If you want a first check of your knowledge, open the quiz Lameness in Cattle. It tests mobility scores, from a sound cow walking with a normal rhythm to cows with an uneven stride. Calf health investigations is a good next quiz, with questions on nutrition and stocking density. LAM II FINAL is a case-style quiz that asks you to reach a likely diagnosis from a short history.

Using quizzes and maps together

The mind map Calf Diarrhoea Complex lays out the causes: the calf, the environment, nutrition and infectious agents. It also lists risk factors such as intensive rearing, large herds and high stocking rates. Read it, then try the flashcards on calf problems and infectious diarrhoea, and finish with the quiz on calf health investigations. The same pattern works for mastitis, where several mind maps, flashcard decks and quizzes sit side by side, including a quiz on a herd approach to mastitis.

Past exam style practice

Some quizzes are written in the style of past papers for bovine medicine, with multiple choice, extended matching and image-based questions. They suit professional candidates and university students who want to practice under a little pressure. Teachers can pick individual quizzes or decks to set as ready-made tasks.

Where this unit sits

Cattle Medicine belongs to the strand Species and Production Animal Medicine within Veterinary medicine. Pick one topic that you find hardest, try its quiz, and then build your own flashcards or maps to fill what is missing.

Frequently asked questions

Which resource should I open first?

Start with the quiz Lameness in Cattle if you want a quick test of your knowledge. It covers mobility scores and what each one looks like. If calves are your focus, Calf health investigations is a good alternative, with questions on nutrition and stocking density.

What do the mind maps cover?

The mind maps cover topics such as calf diarrhoea, mastitis, dairy cow lameness, bovine babesiosis, malignant catarrhal fever and respiratory disease of calves. Calf Diarrhoea Complex sets out causes and risk factors in one view, which makes it a useful starting point for revision-style overviews.

Are these resources free to use?

Yes. Every resource on this page is free to open, study and take, with no account needed. They were made by GoConqr users, not by GoConqr itself. If you want to save quiz scores or make your own quizzes, maps, flashcards and notes, you can add a free account.

Who are these resources for?

They suit university students and professional candidates studying cattle medicine, and teachers who want ready-made material. Most of the material is at university level, with a smaller share aimed at professionals. Some quizzes follow past exam formats for bovine medicine, which is useful for practice.

Is there material on mastitis?

Yes, mastitis has several resources of its own: quizzes on introduction, treatments and a herd approach, flashcard decks on clinical and subclinical cases, contagious and environmental pathogens, and treatment, plus a few mind maps including Managing Mastitis.

What if the topic I need is missing?

Try a nearby topic first, since many conditions appear inside broader decks such as those on sudden death, youngstock diseases or abdominal conditions. If you still cannot find it, you can build your own quiz, mind map or flashcards with a free account.
