A devastating cattle disease endemic in California's foothill country causes pregnant heifers to lose their fetuses in the third trimester, killing an estimated 5 % to 10 % of the state's annual beef calf «crop» — a loss of 45,000 to 90,000 animals.
To help ensure safety in pregnant cattle, heifers must receive at least 2 doses of any BOVI - SHIELD GOLD FP or PREGGUARD GOLD FP vaccine with the second dose administered approximately 30 days prebreeding.
