Answer to Question 1

Complications associated with growth implants in cattle include abscess formation, expelled
implants, cartilage embedment, and crushed/broken implants.

Answer to Question 2

Intramuscular injections are performed just caudal and ventral to the ear on the lateral neck
area. Subcutaneous injections in smaller pigs can be performed on the inside of the flank
along the abdominal wall. For larger pigs the loose area of skin caudal to the ear is used. The
marginal ear vein is the most common site used for performing intravenous injections.
