Animal Nutrient Requirements Maintenance = Basal Metabolism +
Minimum Movement + Foraging On a yearly basis requires greatest amount of
energy by the animal. Depends on species - Cow > Sheep > Deer Domestic vs Native - Most wildlife species have
the ability to vary their basal metabolic rate with season.

Animal Nutrient Requirements Maintenance
Depends on Age - Young > Old
For example basal metabolic rate of sheep: birth = 132 kcal/m3
15 weeks = 68 kcal/m3
6 years = 52 kcal/m3

Animal Nutrient Requirements Growth - important energy demand in young
animals and pregnant females Reproduction –
energy need in last trimester of pregnancy for females
important for males during breeding season

Animal Nutrient Requirements Lactation - greatest energy requirement of
mature females above maintenance. Requires 45% greater energy supply than
maintenance.

Animal Nutrient Requirements Level of activity
15% greater energy required for standing compared to lying down.
40-46% more energy needed for range animals than stall-fed animals.

Animal Nutrient Requirements Environmental conditions affect the amount of
energy needed by animals Cold environments require more energy for
maintenance. Hot environments require more water for perspiration.
