Certain genes can help sheep become climate resilient

Certain genes can help sheep become climate resilient 8 April 2021 | Some breeds of sheep are more resilient to temperature fluctuations making them more productive Pinpointing genes relating to variations in milk production could help breed animals resilient to warming conditions, new research has shown. Groups of genes may enable some sheep to remain productive in hot and cold conditions, according to UK and Greek scientists. Selecting animals with those genes for breeding could help flocks adapt in the region, they say, which is vulnerable to climate change. Some Chios sheep in the Mediterranean - whose milk is used to produce feta cheese - are more resilient than others to temperature fluctuations throughout the seasons.

The British Association for Shooting and Conservation (BASC) made the plea in its manifesto ahead of the Holyrood elections next month. It said a gamekeeping taskforce was needed to address “worrying trends” highlighted in research by Scotland’s Rural College on behalf of the Scottish Government. The research found almost two thirds of gamekeepers had experienced abuse and 80% said they felt less optimistic about their future. Anti-shooting campaigns, a negative portrayal of the shooting sector in the public domain and a lack of government support were cited as possible drivers for the pessimism within the sector.
