A) About Cows:

1. What are the  5 most common pathologies of cows? Mention them and give a little description too.

1.   Bovine Virus Diarrhea (BVD)

This is one of the most costly diseases for cattle producers. Signs may include scours, nasal discharge, coughing and fever. BVD can also cause infertility, abortion and birth defects. Type 2 BVD can cause haemorrhaging and death in susceptible young calves and adult cows.

2.   PI3 (Parainfluenza Type 3)

This common, mild respiratory disease suppresses the animal's immune system, allowing other diseases to develop. The virus is shed in nasal and eye secretions, and infects non-vaccinated animals through the mouth and nasal passages.

3.   IBR (Infectious Bovine Rhinotracheitis)

Also known as "Rednose", this highly contagious virus causes respiratory disease, abortions and infertility. Signs include inflamed nasal passages, fever, rapid breathing, deep cough and loss of appetite.

4.   Mastitis

Bovine mastitis is the persistent, inflammatory reaction of the udder tissue due to physical trauma or microorganisms infections. Mastitis, a potentially fatal mammary gland infection.

5.   Internal Parasites

These diseases are caused by internal helminths (roundworms, tapeworms and flukes) as well as external arthropods (mites, lice, ticks, and flies).  Parasitic diseases of cattle impair health, reproduction, growth, and productivity.  In severe cases, parasitic diseases may even cause death.

B) About horses

1. Look for  a good website that refers to horses. Copy its link. Explain why you like the website. (50 words)

http://www.rodeoyrienda.cl/

I like this web site because; it represents very well the history of the Chilean horse. It is a very intelligent horse and pretty beautiful; also talks about anatomy, behaviour of them, etc.

I like too how this natural monument has been preserved because it has a
birth certificate control to register them.

2. Find a good image showing (with names) the animal's external anatomy. 

3. Publish a good image of the horse's cardiovascular system (with names)

Akita 88% match

Japan loves the Akita, so much that the nation dedicated a national monument to this largest of its indigenous breeds. Thought to symbolize well-being and health in its native country, the Akita first came to the United States with Hellen Keller in 1937.

This popular show dog also does performance and therapy work. They are brave, dignified, and devoted to their chosen family. The Akita is an extra large and medium-energy breed, which can live 10-13 years and grow to between 70-100 lbs (female) or 100-130 lbs (male). The breed is recognized by the American Kennel Club and classified as a member of the Working breed group.

SHOWS:

1.- https://www.animalplanet.com/tv-shows/the-zoo/videos/cheetah-and-pups-become-best-friends
I like this video because the different species and if they had not grow together they probably they got bad relationship
so it's amazing how your upbringing can change you, so I invited you to see it.


2.- https://www.animalplanet.com/tv-shows/the-zoo/videos/zoo-stories-kiwis-looking-for-love
It's super curious that birds can be monogamous, so kiwis should be with the perfect partner. in the bronx zoo it appears as they create the environment for this to happen. I invite you to see it.


3.- https://www.animalplanet.com/tv-shows/the-zoo/videos/giving-medication-to-a-venomous-rattlesnake
Once I asked you how to administer oral medication to the snake, it is a challenge knowing that some poisonous ones only eat once a week. I invite you to see it.

WHY DO YOU WANT TO BE A VET?

When I was a child, I wanted to be a superhero, I always wanted to have super powers like teleportation, control of the water, or be super fast. Also I wanted to be a pro soccer player and play with messi and cristiano ronaldo as we were friends . But finally I made the decision that I wanted to be a vet and it was pretty hard to make the decison because I was between veterinary medicine and engineer, but I chose veterinary medicine because my father is a vet and since I was born I have grown up with animals. Now I am studying in the University of Chile, Veterinary Medicine, in Santiago of Chile and I am so glad to do it, and my experience here it is been well so far I really like the farm and all the animal that they have.
When I get older I would like to work with my father and I would like to have own clinic and I would like to have a dog breeding with a lot of races and a horse farm with chilean horses.
