27
What is Bio security?
Guide defines animal biosecurity as “all measures taken to prevent, identify, contain, and eradicate known or unknown infections that may cause clinical disease or alter physiologic and behavioral responses or otherwise make the animals unsuitable for research
28
Personalization of rooms and airflow

Food security
Food insecurity
Hunger and malnutrition
Food security: physical and economic access to safe and nutritional food that is for active and healthy life
Food insecurity: limited or uncertain ability to acquire the food - is food there and can you pay for it
Hunger : physical sensation in body because of lack of consuming energy
Malnutrition : imbalance of energy and protein and nutrients affecting the organs—> more severe form is starvation
49
Four pillars of food security
Available : production and distribution and exchange
Access: Affordability, allocation, preferences
Utilization : Have to be able to utilize food- is it healthy food and can they digest the food —> *improves with eduction*
Stability The system must be stable to keep this security - refugees? Market stability? Income stable?
50
roles of the organizations addressing food security globally AND nationally
Globally there is the food and agriculture organization of the United Nations (FAO), WHO, IFAD (for funding), UNICEF
Global food and nutrition security: world bank - loan to governments

Control Coccidiosis by using coccidiostats in “shuttle programs”
Expose them to a low level of coccidia (vaccine) then put them in a flock with coccidiaStat
Keep rotating between ionophore coccidiastat versus chemical coccidiastat to prevent resistance
60
interpret a serologic profile for the purposes of designing a vaccination program
The classic serologic profile for gram-negative opportunistic pathogen poultry: take two antibody titers overtime
If the second titer is increased, then it is likely the new exposure
Versus if the titer is declining in the second sample, it is an old exposure
61
4 ways to give poultry vaccine
6 reasons for vaccine failure in poultry
Ways to give vaccines: spray, water source, subcutaneous, in-ovo (egg), etc.
Vax failure:
• Immunocompromise or subclinical disease

Stress in a fish can present in three ways
The primary responses in the blood
Secondary is tissue -glucose or lactate
Tertiary is in the population health — more chronic
70
6 categories of innate (normal) behavior in birds.
• Migration : move on the four key American flyways
• Communal behavior: for protection and food
• Territoriality: Aggression may be displayed toward all animals entering the territory

72
rearing needs of precocial, altricial, and parasitic-altricial species
Precocial chicks are able to find food for themselves
Altricial chicks must be reared by their parents until they fledge
Some parasitic species have other “parents” rear their young (typically accompanied by siblicide)
73
differentiate between normal, abnormal, and undesirable behaviors in birds
Abnormal Behaviors
• Increased, agitated vocalizations
• Decreased vocalizations
• Ruffled feathers

Compare and contrast antemortem and postmortem inspection with respect to why they are done and the various result
Antemortem
• Remove obviously diseased animals prior to slaughter; helps to prevent unnecessary contamination of the slaughtering facility
• Identify suspects better for more extensive postmortem
Antemortem
I passed for slaughter
2 US suspect
3 US condemned -bad disease
Postmortem is to look at the facility and and the diseases of the head or viscera
Postmortem
—Pass

86
Describe the difference between direct and indirect AMR transmission
pathways from animals to human
Direct transmission focuses on AMR pathogens that develop in animals and are transmitted to people through food, water, or direct contact
Indirect transmission occurs through environmental mediation: AMR bacteria serve as a source of AMR genes (mobile genetic elements) that can be shared between bacteria in the environment. Humans are exposed
– not necessarily to the original animal-origin bacteria, but to bacteria in the environment that now contain the animal-origin resistance genes
87

—undercooked chicken or puppy prophylactic tx
Drug-resistant nontyphoidal Salmonella
—people from eating
contaminated food or from
contact with feces from
infected people or animals
