Vomit - Uncyclopedia Vomit is usually yellowish, and full of chunks of partially digested, partially hydrogenated, and partially constipated food particles (usually containing an aborted fetus); of which the most recognizable is corn, and the most unrecognizable is lime gelatin. Vomit, being that it is partially predigested for you, means that your body does not have to burn hardly any of those precious calories that your body has so painstakingly stored up. Vomit has been eaten by humans since Lucy, the red headed homoerectious, gave up her job as a hooker and became a bulimic runway model. www.uncyclopedia.org /wiki/Vomit   (760 words)

issg Database: Ecology of Sus scrofa Pigs on the island were active at night mostly when conditions were warm and dry (Van Vuren 1984, in Wolf and Conover 2003). Rooting by pigs disturbs the seed bank, reduces surface vegetation and alters the soil by increasing soil temperature, increasing or decreasing the nitrogen content, increasing oxidation and increasing the leaching of Ca, P, Zn, Cu and Mg (Kotanen 1994, Singer Swank and Clebsch 1984, Arrington, Toth and Koebel 1999, in Wolf and Conover 2003). Unlike on Hawaii, on Santiago island the pigs do not have a negative impact on the native vegetation; this is due to the increased resistance of plants to generalised herbivores, in particular, the native giant tortoise (Colblentz Baber 1987, in Wolf and Conover 2003). www.issg.org /database/species/ecology.asp?si=73&fr=1&sts=   (2422 words)

Hog Cholera The pigs may be virtually free of disease for several months before developing mild anorexia, depression, conjunctivitis, dermatitis, diarrhea, runting, and locomotive disturbance leading to paresis and death. In pigs infected transplacentally with HCV strains of low virulence, the most commonly seen lesions are hypoplasia of the cerebellum, thymus atrophy, ascites, and deformities of the head and of the limbs. Approximately 75 percent of pigs infected with acute HC have microscopic lesions of an encephalitis characterized by perivascular cuffing, endothelial proliferation, and microgliosis. www.vet.uga.edu /vpp/gray_book02/fad/hoc.php   (2593 words)

If pigs could fly, they'd be after some space - Business - Business Pigs are capable of higher-order brain functions and interactions that were previously thought to be confined to people. Pig factory production is so barbaric that it is already outlawed in Sweden and Britain, and is being phased out in many other civilised places, such as the European Union and parts of the US. Pig farmers are desensitised to the suffering of pigs. www.theage.com.au /news/business/if-pigs-could-fly-theyd-be-after-some-space/2006/05/01/1146335670557.html   (1246 words)

Hemagglutinating Encephalomyelitis: Introduction - The Merck Veterinary Manual Vomiting is thought to be caused by viral replication in the vagal sensory ganglion. Wasting is due to vomiting and delayed emptying of the stomach, which is the result of virus-induced lesions in the intramural plexus. Vomiting continues intermittently for 1-2 days, but it is rarely severe and does not result in dehydration. www.merckvetmanual.com /mvm/htm/bc/53800.htm   (766 words)

Guinea Pig Neutering, How to Neuter your Guinea Pigs Guinea pigs are usually seen by what is referred to as an "exotic" or small animal vet. If you have to take the guinea pig back to the vet to have stitches or staples removed, continue the post-op care and monitoring until you are certain there is no possible infection at the suture site.

Classical Swine Fever (CSF) - Hog Cholera (HC) - Managing Pig Health If your pig farm is in Germany, Austria or Poland, although the domestic pig population is free from the virus, it is endemic in the wild boar population which poses a threat to your herd. If your pig farm is in the South of Brazil, although your area may be free from the virus there is a risk of it getting back in from the North. Initially affected pigs may appear to be constipated but this generally changes to a yellow-grey diarrhoea as the disease progresses. www.thepigsite.com /pighealth/article/447/classical-swine-fever-csf-hog-cholera-hc   (2748 words)

Guinea Pig Neutering, How to Neuter your Guinea Pigs The guinea pig is smaller, the operation is complicated by the nature of the scrotal area and open inguinal canal. Vomiting post-operatively is a main reason we fast cats, dogs, and even humans.

Vomit Blood -- Recommendations and Resources   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-13) Vomiting (or emesis) is the forceful expulsion of the contents of one's stomach through the mouth. Although it probably evolved as a mechanism for expelling ingested poisons, vomiting may result from many causes not related to poisoning, ranging from gastritis to brain tumors. Vomiting is co-ordinated in the vomiting center in the medulla. www.becomingapediatrician.com /health/163/vomit-blood.html   (777 words)

Hand feeding your guinea pig   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-13) Although not all guinea pig ailments mean you have to syringe feed your guinea pig, but if they are refusing food or eating very little, then hand feeding is essential. Never place your guinea pig on their back to feed them, the risk of aspiration (fluid entering the lungs) is much greater. When a guinea pig is poorly, its wise to separate the poorly guinea pig from their cages mates, especially if its an infectious illness. jackiesguineapiggies.com /handfeedingyourguineapig.html   (3819 words)

issg Database: Management and Information Links for Sus scrofa   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-13) The pigs were successfully eradicated in three of the management areas in HAVO and populations were reduced in other areas (Hone and Stone 1989, in Wolf and Conover 2003). Management is recommended principally because the feral pig disrupts and destroys native forests and replaces native ecosystems with the exotic strawberry guava which it effectively disperses (Diong 1982). Two possible factors could increase the number of pigs in the forest: 1) the extinction of native predators such as tigers and leopards and 2) the presence of a a fruit food supply from adjacent plantations (of African oil palm) (Ickes 2001, in Wolf and Conover 2003). www.issg.org /database/species/management_info.asp?si=73&fr=1&sts=   (3426 words)

Cavy behaviour - why guinea pigs do the things that they do Guinea pigs are social creatures and in the wild they live in large communities with the dominant male at the centre with his 'harem' and their offspring, surrounded by a bachelor colony of lower ranking males. Guinea pig mothers recognise their babies by scent but it is not uncommon for youngsters to be fed by sows who are not their mother. Guinea pig society is a relatively peaceful place so this seems to be the guinea pig way of toughening the youngsters up and preparing them for the wider world. www.galensgarden.co.uk /herbivores/cavy/behaviour.php   (629 words)

GoVeg.com // Cruelty to Animals // Pigs // Top 10 Reasons Not to Eat Pigs   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-13) Ninety-seven percent of pigs in the United States today are raised in factory farms, where they will never run across sprawling pastures, bask in the sun, breathe fresh air, or do anything else that comes naturally to them. Conditions are so filthy that at any given time, more than one-quarter of pigs suffer from mange—think of your worst case of poison ivy, and imagine having to suffer from it for the rest of your life. Mother pigs spend most of their lives in tiny “gestation” crates, which are so small that the animals are unable to turn around or even lie down comfortably. www.goveg.com /f-top10pigs.asp   (1039 words)

GoVeg.com // Cruelty to Animals // Pigs // Pigs on Factory Farms After giving birth, a mother pig is moved to a “farrowing crate,” a contraption even worse and smaller than a gestation crate, with only a tiny additional concrete area on which the piglets can nurse. Pigs develop sores from living in filthy conditions that are too cramped to even stand up in. Impeccably clean by nature, pigs on factory farms are forced to live in their own feces, vomit, and even amid the corpses of other pigs. www.goveg.com /factoryFarming_pigs_farms.asp   (1175 words)

Animal Rights & Welfare Debate--Beliefnet.com It is not religous as much as cultural, which is why religions that are associated within the same geographical regions tend to have the same taboos or attitudes. Pigs were probably considered unclean due to trichinosis as well as the eating of rubbish. As far as pigs go in India especially rural India, pigs are the sanitation system. www.beliefnet.com /boards/message_list.asp?pageID=2&discussionID=536852&messages_per_page=4   (563 words)

Duchess Fund Headlines and Updates Determining whether or not a pig is in a medical crisis is difficult unless the pig is standing in front of the veterinarian. If you have one (or several pigs) that are healthy, not in contact with other pigs or a host of other animals and are maintained in a healthy state, the risk of contracting a contagious disease is minimal. Not only must the new pigs be physically separated, but people in contact with the newly arrived animals must ensure that they wash their hands and sometimes even change clothes after working with the quarantined pig so they don't carry anything contagious from the quarantine area to the general population. www.duchessfund.org /you_vet.htm   (8916 words)

breakmyface.com ~ Vomit Pigs There were Chris and Roy and Eddie and Doug and later Russell and me, but Mikey (or Mike Vomit or Mite Vomit) was the Vomit Pig. At first the guys had dubbed themselves The Vomit Pigs Make-Believe Blues Boobs Band, but this proved unwieldy and was truncated to just the Vomit Pigs and later to just the VPs. Some no-name cartoonist would later shamelessly appropriate the name Vomit Pigs for a strip about a rock band that bore not the slightest resemblance to Mike and friends. www.breakmyface.com /bands/vomitpigs.html   (590 words)

Guinea Pigs: hiccups? I also rescue and breed guinea pigs, I have for around 10 years. I would check the inside of his mouth and his cage for things that he should not be chewing on, or swallowing.

The Peter Gurney Guinea Pig Pages - Heaving hiccups   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-13) I have put heaving hiccups in because though it is nothing more than an defence mechanism guinea pigs have to clear air blocks, or something which, to use the proverbial term, 'Has gone down the wrong way,' it is very alarming to see the first time around. The guinea pig will heave up as though it is about to vomit, only it is far more violent and traumatic than the same kind of thing seen in humans. The guinea pig can have five or six of these spasms and they can get more violent as they progress, then suddenly there is a hiccup, a cough sometimes and that's it, all over, and it will go back to what it was doing before the heaving started. www.oginet.com /pgurney/heavinghiccups.htm   (248 words)

Marshall County Journal If zearalenone is the mycotoxin present, pigs will eat it, but it can then cause reproductive problems in the females. He added that the other important issue with pigs is that the straw can also contain mycotoxins. If the straw contains vomitoxin, it is not a problem for pigs, since they will quit eating the straw. www.zwire.com /site/news.cfm?BRD=1971&dept_id=226901&newsid=14929222&PAG=461&rfi=9   (338 words)

Vomit Pigs starring Mike Vomit I've compiled what was I believe to be some of the best material written and recorded by the VPs. The CD-R is disappointingly short,(some of the more critical types have found it agonizingly long) especially when considering that before he died in 1984, Mike Brock, a/k/a/ Mike or 'Mite' Vomit, had written literally hundreds of songs and poems. There was another band that had the unmitigated gall to call themselves the Vomit Pigs AFTER Mike had made a name with the Vomit Pigs. home.swbell.net /artie_t/veepee.htm   (316 words)

Guinea Pigs: my guinea pig is sick Check his mouth and teeth to make sure nothing is stuck any where, guinea pigs can not vomit, so sometimes they can get things stuck in the back of their mouth.
