Add to ORKGThere is a long history of high quality beef production in the Orkney Islands; however, perinatal losses (death of a full term calf from birth to 48 hours old) remain a major loss of potential income to producers. In an ideal situation, perinatal losses should occur in <2% of all calving cattle on British beef herds (Caldow et al., 2005). Local veterinary surgeons in Orkney perceived a high incidence of perinatal losses in beef herds which prompted further investigation of the incidence and aetiologies of these losses. A post mortem examination protocol and diagnostic algorithm were developed for the systematic investigation and categorisation of bovine perinatal losses in beef cattle, to allow the establishment of time of death, proximal c...
