The shelter for the enclosure housing the mini-cow and the sheep and the shelter for the enclosure housing the zebu each contained an excessive buildup of fecal material. When the animals lay down in these shelters their coats can become contaminated with this fecal material. They can then ingest this material while grooming. Ingestion of fecal material can lead to parasite and disease problems. These shelters must be cleaned on a more frequent basis to prevent possible health issues for the animals using them.
