protect animal welfare during transport, provide for a maximum journey time after which animals must be unloaded, fed and watered in control posts (CP) before continuing unloading procedures as the most detrimental part of the journey, in this research we investigated whether adult ewes were divided into homogenous groups One group was not moved from the farm of origin which they arrived at a CP One group was unloaded and housed in a pen (P) while the other was left inside samplings each 5min Behaviours considered were standing, resting, moving and eating Blood parameters P
