The objective was to establish the thermal comfort zone for Santa Ines sheep by comparing the physiological responses at different options of temperatures in bioclimatic chamber. The experiment lasted 71 days and was conducted with the use of seven Santa Ines lambs per treatment. The treatments were temperature ranges of 10, 15, 20, 25, 30, 35 and 40ºC with tree replicates (exposure days) and a five-day interval. The experimental design was completely randomized. Meteorological data collected were: dry bulb temperature; […]
