Abstract
Various aspects of sheep transport are discussed. There is much concern about the correct stocking density of a vehicle to provide an acceptable level of animal welfare. If sheep are stocked too tightly on a vehicle, a fallen animal may have difficulty getting up. Sheep prefer to brace themselves against the motion of the vehicle by spreading their legs instead of leaning on each other. Driving events, such as acceleration, braking, stopping, cornering, uneven road surfaces and gear changes, are the cause of 22% of loss of balance incidents. The chapter also presents information on stress in relation to transport, the effect of temperature on respiration rate (thermoregulation), feed and water deprivation and time on the vehicle. There is an important species difference between sheep and cattle. When sheep get off a vehicle, they will eat before they will drink, and rest stops must be long enough for sheep to eat and then to drink. If the quality of the journey is good and care is taken to select only sheep that are fit, it is possible to transport certain types of sheep over long distances without the sheep experiencing major welfare problems.

How this classification was reachedexpand
Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one teacher head, not a consensus.
