Animal Science

Paul Kononoff, Professor of Animal Science, is nudged by Spice, a jersey cow, while being photographed with the air collection booth used to measure methane gas produced by cattle. To measure the gas, a cow is surrounded by a phone-booth like structure where the cow eats and drinks as the air is collected and sampled. December 15, 2023.

Jessica Petersen Associate Professor of Animal Science, with beef cattle in the animal science arena on East Campus. Her research can expand the range of genetic tools used by breeders to boost cattle growth efficiency. An increase in feed efficiency of just 1% would save the U.S. cattle sector more than $11 million a year. September 15, 2023. Photo by Craig Chandler / University Communication.
