This book endeavors to educate its readers on the techniques and strategies for managing livestock during disasters. It covers all types of natural and man-made disasters and their impact on livestock, as well as methods for improving their survival and assisting humans. The book discusses how animals can predict disasters and provides information on common indicators. Additionally, it addresses issues related to feeding, feed resources, production, and health to make livestock production more cost-effective. The hope is that this compilation will be useful for researchers, planners, and policymakers to understand the factors that contribute to the decline in productivity and health of livestock in arid regions, and to develop plans for sustaining and improving production.
