The effect of corrective claw trimming on gait analysis of the sow

An abstract of a study by Wilson et al trying to ascertain kinematic adaptations following corrective claw trimming of sows is presented. Their data supports the practice of claw trimming to improve gait efficiency of the sow, which may influence sow longevity and culling rate.
