Was the cattle driven too far from water? Do cows have a low resistance to heat? Would a pavilion type shelter help? Just curiosity from a non-farmer.

Their body heat combined with direct sun, high humidity and high ambient temperature can cause lethal heat stress. Factor in continued windless, cloudless days and the death toll will grow worse, effecting even the healthiest. Remember, essentially, all of the beef in your grocery's meat department comes from these feedlots.

Than other animals.

A farmer who had a dairy told me if not taken care of, cows can suffer heat stress at temperatures in the 70s. With milk cows it was the gathering together in holding pens before milking that was the most dangerous times for overheating.

This dairy farmer used sprinklers, fans and lots of shade to keep his herd cool in normal summertime temperatures. He's currently selling his dairy and sold off his cows last year. He said he's glad he didn't have to deal with this heatwave.

I raise sheep and since they are hair sheep, I don't have a problem with them overheating. But I provide plenty of shade and water for them. There's also this protected stream, shadowed by mountains, on my property that acts as a heat sink and rarely gets warmer than in the 70s that the sheep hang out by to keep cool.

But cattle are very large animals that are very susceptible to heat stress.

Thanks, climate deniers.

senior population and no such things as cooling stations. They still do not even believe in climate change and global warming

to clean energy. It's not as if Florida and the rest of the South don't have sufficient sun.

If we let them end democracy in the next few years, only the rich will survive climate intensification.

The DCCC and DSCC have to do better in battleground states, enfolding and engaging new voters with visions of desirable possible futures.

As will many many species. All the GQP hoax declarations are gonna end us.
Climate change…. A hoax
Covid……a hoax
Cigs kill….a hoax
Guns kill people….a hoax
Poison air….a hoax
Poison water….a hoax
Sandy Hook….a hoax
Deadly insurrection….a hoax
Pro life party…..a hoax
GQP….a hoax
All the hoaxes are letting GQP rake in cash, willfully killing all life, as Jesus instructed
Their version of the Buy Bull….a hoax

we didn't have air conditioning. Someone is being stupid with those cattle. Never heard of so many dying when I lived there.
