摘要

Abstract

This study investigates the relationships between hair cortisol levels, behavioral traits, and morphological characteristics in domestic goats (Capra hircus). Statistically significant correlations were found between hair cortisol concentration and coat color parameters, including pigmentation. A link between hair cortisol levels and stress resilience was confirmed using quantitative behavior assessment (QBA). The results of this study may be used in the development of noninvasive methods for assessing stress resilience in goats for livestock management purposes.
