About Bovine on the NAVLE
Bovine questions (6.4% of the NAVLE) focus on both individual cow medicine and herd-level food animal practice. Must-know topics include metabolic diseases (milk fever/hypocalcemia, grass tetany, ketosis, hardware disease, bloat), mastitis and udder health, respiratory disease (BRD complex: IBR, BVD, BRSV, Mannheimia haemolytica), reproductive management (estrous synchronization, dystocia, retained fetal membranes), and important regulatory considerations for food-animal drug use.
