This study was carried out at the Animal Experimental Farm,Animal and Poultry Production Department,Faculty of Agriculture,Assiut University. This work was conducted to investigate the effects of truck transportation on live body weight with and without fasting and some physiological parameters in buffalo. Also the effect of drenched electrolyte fluid on transportation stress was investigated. Fifteen mixed sexes buffalo calves separated equally to three groups according to their body weights were used in the present study.Group A Calves ranged in body weight from 126 to 163.5 kg, group B from 176 to 252 kg, and group C from 275 to 368kg.Insignificant differences among the three animal groups were found in all of the studied parameters.Transportation induced increment percentage of body weight loss, rectal temperature, and increment followed by decrement in respiration rate and pulse rate.
