Key aspects covered include ensuring adequate water supply, managing yard conditions with deep bedding and even footing, and providing shade and cooling. Nutritional needs are addressed with recommendations for high-protein feed, acknowledging that animals may have reduced appetites for up to a week. Burn treatment protocols involve initiating antibiotics, pain medication, and fly control promptly. Topical applications such as honey and sugar poultices are suggested for wound care, along with the removal of scabs that might impede function, particularly for prepuce and teats. Stress reduction is emphasized, advising work during cool temperatures and good air quality, with special attention given to late gestation animals and pairs. The document also details immediate fire assessments, urging a thorough examination of each animal to categorize its condition. This includes looking for swelling or burns on lower body parts like legs, hooves, udders, teats, testicles, and sheath, noting that calves might be unable to nurse from singed teats and that burned sheaths and teats could heal closed. Signs of respiratory distress, such as coughing and rapid breathing, along with soot, open wounds, ulcers on the eyes and muzzle, and melted plastic from eartags, are also highlighted as critical indicators to monitor daily for at least ten days post-fire.",{"@graph":63,"@context":122},[64,80,101],{"@type":65,"itemListElement":66},"BreadcrumbList",[67,71,74,77],{"item":68,"name":69,"@type":70,"position":9},"https://docshare.wps.com","Home","ListItem",{"item":72,"name":10,"@type":70,"position":73},"https://docshare.wps.com/template/",2,{"item":75,"name":51,"@type":70,"position":76},"https://docshare.wps.com/template/general/",3,{"item":78,"name":59,"@type":70,"position":79},"https://docshare.wps.com/template/post-fire-livestock-management-and-care/194407/",4,{"url":78,"name":59,"@type":81,"image":82,"author":87,"headline":59,"publisher":90,"fileFormat":93,"inLanguage":57,"description":61,"dateModified":94,"datePublished":95,"encodingFormat":93,"isAccessibleForFree":96,"interactionStatistic":97},"DigitalDocument",{"url":83,"@type":84,"width":85,"height":86},"https://docshare.wps.com/thumbnails/post-fire-livestock-management-and-care/194407.png","ImageObject",442,249,{"name":88,"@type":89},"WPS_1786070896","Person",{"url":68,"name":91,"@type":92},"DocShare","Organization","application/pdf","2026-10-05","2026-09-03",true,{"@type":98,"interactionType":99,"userInteractionCount":47},"InteractionCounter",{"@type":100},"ViewAction",{"@type":102,"mainEntity":103},"FAQPage",[104,110,114,118],{"name":105,"@type":106,"acceptedAnswer":107},"What are the immediate steps for providing water to post-fire livestock?","Question",{"text":108,"@type":109},"If animals have been without water for over a day, limit their initial access.
