Abstract
Observations were made, at pasture on 4 pairs of mono-zygous twins, 1 pair of dizygous twins, and 8 individually born cattle which were paired-up as artificial twins from an early age. The members of each pair were usually found close to each other within the herd. This type of behavior may be controlled more by the method of rearing than by the genetic make-up of the animals involved.This publication has 0 references indexed in Scilit:
