This means patients often face a lifetime of expensive medications, injections, or infusions w
Dairy goats have a lot to say about milking time, and now scientists have a cool way to listen. By using heat-sensing cameras, researchers have discovered how the temperature of a goat's teats changes during milking. This isn't just about taking pretty pictures, though. It's about understanding how
