Animal vulnerability and the necessity of protecting them

In Romania, there are at least 14 animal species represented by 123 animal breeds and pure lines listed on the List of animal genetic resources in critical state, threatened, or vulnerable. Though these animal species need to be protected, their conservation has not been supported financially. These categories of vulnerable animals are represented by: 13 sheep breeds, 19 fish species and breeds, 2 goat breeds, 2 swine breeds, 4 goose breeds, 61 chicken breeds and pure lines, 7 turkey populations, 7 duck breeds, the Romanian buffalo, and a bovine breed, the Sură de stepă

Emergency situations in soil pollution by animal wastes

The analysed indices were identical during the entire research period, and so were the measurement methods used in the laboratory (pH, total humus, total nitrogen, mobile phosphorus, potassium). The evolution of the soil pollution by animal wastes from the farm animals in the Arad area point out a high level of soil pollution because of the low values of the pH, of the low soil bonitation scores, of the secondary compaction in the first genetic horizon. After a poultry farms ceases to operate, soil pollution persists, with a slight tendency to decrease naturally
