Cattle, sheep, and goats etc Why need of Dehorn the Animal • can cause injury to other cattle • can damage hides and cause bruising • harder to handle • require more space at a feed trough • not look attractive • having no buying demand Methods of Dehorning: Plastic ring method, clutch wire, electric hot gun and horn saw are used on adult cattle with larger horn growth. Procedure: The plastic ring is applied with help of applicator at the base of the horn. This will culminate the blood supply to the horn, and results in separation of horn from the head. First of all, a groove has to engrave at the base of the horn where we have to implant the plastic ring. Then, with the help of applicator, we will apply ring at the base. After 1-1.5 months the horn will be removed. Dr. Muhammad Usman Mirza DVM, M.
