 note = {A survey was carried out to determine the incidence of calf wastage through the slaughter of pregnant
beef cows at a local abattoir in Zambia. During August 2005- January 2006, the total number of animals
slaughtered at two commercial abattoirs in Mongu, western province of Zambia, was recorded. A total
of 5,278 head of cattle were slaughtered and 2,211 were cows. A total of 2,211 uteri were examined
and 743 (35.7± 1.9%) were pregnant. The results of the investigation showed that a large number of
slaughtered cows were pregnant in Zambia. The unnecessary disposal of many pregnant cows represents
a major economic loss to the industry, and gives the clear improvement to get more involved in fertility
control and culling policy., 本研究では2005年8月から2006年1月の期間,ザンビア共和国西部州モング市にある2ヵ所の食肉処理場
で妊娠ウシの処分状況を調査した。同期間に総計5,278頭の在来種肉用ウシが食肉処理され,そのうち2,211
頭は雌ウシであった。これらの雌ウシ子宮を調べた結果,743個(35.7±1.9%)が妊娠子宮であり,多数の
妊娠雌ウシがザンビアで食肉処理されていることが示された。多くの妊娠雌ウシの食肉処理は子ウシの浪費に繋がり,大きな経済損失を意味し,改善が必要であろう。},
