Reproductive activity, eliminating aggressive behavior and sodomy, thus improving fat deposition and carcass termination in castrated calves. Over the last years, costumers became increasingly concerned about animal welfare and the use of appropriate methods to manage animals. The objectives of this study were to determine the degree of discomfort caused by castration through surgery and intratesticular injection (IIT) on parameters of pain and inflammation in calves. In experiment 1, 27 calves were used, with up to 20 days of age and 36 kg of live weight.
