| Is the
problem of trying to collect and measure gas emissions from livestock (or maybe your
in-laws) keeping you awake at nights? Have you ever wondered exactly how much energy cow
burps emit? Now your curiosity can be satisfied with the 1993 patent of the 'System for
Measuring Metabolic Gas Emissions From Animals"! Designed to measure how much energy free-roaming livestock
actually use, this device will help identify the feeding systems which allow the most
efficient use of energy for the health of the cow. |

But wait!
The device is fun and easy to use! First feed the subject the tube which acts as an internal
tracer. Attach the end of the tracer tube to the inflatable collar placed
around the animals neck. With every breath, metabolic gas samples are collected and
analyzed. Hey, who said bovine belches aren't fun? |
