Abstract
This study contributes new data on the pain of ear notching in piglets. The application of a topical VS prior to ear notching reduced the antinociceptive response of piglets to the procedure, similar to that of a local anaesthetic. Cryoanaesthesia presents a simple and effective option for reducing the pain response to this simple husbandry procedure.
