Watching the Science Set grow has been a lot of fun, especially when you get to say things like "Louis Pasteur and Jonas Salk have the zoomies!"

These will be heterozygous for the #HeatTolerance and #DiseaseResistance genes I'm looking for. #BackyardChickens

This study evaluates the need for sex-specific criteria in #heat tolerance assessments by comparing physiological responses of females and males during standardized #heattolerance tests

World-First Genetic Index Helps Aussie Farmers Breed Heat Tolerant Cows to Maintain Their Welfare–and Milk Supply Australian dairies are breeding heat-tolerant cows and seeing big returns on hot days that are making the global industry stand up and take notice. Ever feel like wolfing down a big meal when it’s 85°F out with 80% humidity? If you recoil at the thought, that’s one thing you have in common with a dairy […] The post World-First Genetic Index Helps Aussie Farmers Breed Heat Tolerant Cows to Maintain Their Welfare–and Milk Supply appeared first on Good News Network.

New Study Reveals Lower Human Heat Tolerance Limits A University of Ottawa study reveals that human heat tolerance is lower than previously thought, highlighting the urgent need to address climate change impacts on health.

New research shows humans can tolerate less heat than previously believed. As global temperatures rise, this finding underscores the urgent need for climate action to protect public health. #ClimateChange #HeatTolerance #PublicHealth
