Abstract

See full text

An ingestible bolus may be disposed within the stomach of an animal. The bolus may comprise one or more sensors to monitor one or more internal and/or external animal characteristics. The bolus may comprise a data transmitter in wireless communication with a base station. The base station may receive messages from the bolus comprising one or more measured animal characteristics. The base station may comprise a process to monitor the animal and/or be in communication with a process to monitor the animal. The process may build an animal profile based upon the observed characteristics of the animal, the characteristics of other animals in a group associated with the animal, and/or characteristics associated with the breed and/or sex of the animal. Based on this profile, the process may detect a change in a health condition of the animal. Such heath conditions may include, but are not limited to, an estrus condition in the animal, off-feed condition, a nominal condition, the animal leaving an enclosure, or the like.
