Why are dairy cattle usually examined in stocks or a head lock, while beef cattle are examined in a squeeze chute?
What will be an ideal response?
A dairy cow is used to having her head in a head catch while her body is handled in some fashion, whether to milk her or to be rectally palpated. Beef cattle, on the other hand, are generally unaccustomed to being handled and are wary of humans. They may strongly resist being touched, let alone handled, necessitating the use of a device such as a squeeze chute, which will restrain the whole animal.
