Description

This dataset contains all the raw data sets, processing code, and analysis for reproducing and replicating the analysis for the article: Connecting the dots: Relationship between heart rate and Overall Dynamic Body Acceleration (ODBA) in free-ranging cattle. In total, there are 4 files included: the raw dataset, the averaged dataset, and the R script used for the analysis. The raw data contains heart rate and accelerometry data collected from free-ranging cattle during the summer grazing season. The averaged dataset includes processed data summarizing heart rate and ODBA across 1 minute. The R script ('Analysis.R') performs all the steps of preprocessing, and analysis, producing the results as discussed in the article.

Abstract:

Monitoring physiological indicators including heart rate (HR) is crucial for managing animal welfare across diverse settings, from precision livestock farming to wildlife conservation. HR is a reliable indicator of energy expenditure and stress, yet the invasive nature of HR loggers limits their application in wild and free-ranging species. This study explores whether overall dynamic body acceleration (ODBA), measured with an external accelerometer, can serve as a less invasive proxy for HR. Using free-ranging cattle as a model species in Norway, we examined the relationship between ODBA and HR to assess how external accelerometry might indirectly reflect physiological states in settings that resemble wild conditions. Cattle provide an ideal model because they share some characteristics with wild herbivores, including exposure to diverse terrain and potential predation, while offering advantages for handling and sensor retrieval.

Our findings showed that low ODBA values corresponded to static behaviours (e.g., standing, ruminating), where small movements caused HR spikes, while higher ODBA reflected dynamic activities (e.g., walking, foraging), with HR plateauing. This relationship suggests that ODBA can be used to approximate HR in environments where direct HR measurement is challenging. By using accelerometry to infer HR changes in free-ranging cattle, this study offers insights that could extend to wild species, offering a tool for conservationists to monitor and manage animal health and wellbeing less invasively.
