Salt (NaCl) is an essential element in many plants and in the diets of humans and animals. Salt is even a preservative, protecting against spoilage and coincidentally maintaining life. In most places…

This mini-review approached the ethological aspects of the natriophilic behavior in ruminants and a hypothesis and a short physiological discussion regarding interrelationship between salt ingestion and its putative implication with the animal production.
Invited review: Environmental enrichment of dairy cows and calves in indoor housing.
- Biology, MedicineJournal of dairy science

Recent findings on the effect of social, occupational, physical, sensory, and nutritional enrichment on dairy cows and calves are reviewed, and the appropriateness and practicality of implementing different enrichment practices on commercial dairy farms are assessed.
Short communication: Preference for flavored concentrate premixes by dairy cows.
- Mathematics, MedicineJournal of dairy science

In conclusion, relative to the control, concentrate intake was not affected by flavor, but dairy cows may prefer vanilla or fenugreek flavors when offered a novel choice.

SALT TASTE THRESHOLDS OF NORMAL AND ADRENALECTOMIZED RATS1
- Biology
- 1939
With a slightly modified self-selection technic a special study has been made of salt taste thresholds of normal as well as of adrenalectomized rats, indicating that adrenalectomy also lowered the taste threshold for salt.

The metabolic effects of sodium depletion in calves on salt appetite assessed by operant methods.

The metabolic changes which develop in parallel with the severity of the sodium deficit appear to be able to evoke behavioural changes with increase in salt appetite directed towards restoration of sodium balance.
Sodium deprivation alters neural responses to gustatory stimuli
- Biology, PsychologyThe Journal of general physiology
- 1979
The effects of sodium deprivation for 10 d, a period sufficient to induce sodium appetite, on gustatory nerve discharges in rats were determined and a possible relationship between changes in Sodium chloride responsivity and changes in sodium intake was discussed.

Increased sodium appetite, characteristic of sodium depletion, was assessed by operant behaviour where scoring of panel pressing for NaHCO3 rewards showed change in sodium appetite.

The recurrent but apparently little-known observation that darkly pigmented animals have greater taste sensitivity than their lightly pigmented conspecifics has led to the experiment described here.
