When asked Thursday about her mother’s book, “Educating,” which provides an alternative take, Westover said, “My version doesn’t have to be the only version, and I’m really comfortable with the idea that there are other ways of looking at it.” Her parents have disputed Westover’s account.

Most cows stopped grazing, sought shade, panted and spent more time at the watering points. All these parameters were significantly affected by high-temperature-humidity conditions with a significant drop in milk production. We followed the cows during the entire summer period (December 2018–February 2019) and measured the effect of high temperature and humidity on physiological variables such as respiratory rate, panting scores and body temperature. In this study, we investigated the effect of summer heat events on lactating Holstein Friesian cows at the Robotic milking farm of the University of Melbourne in Victoria, Australia. Heat stress (HS) is a major challenge for sustainable livestock production, which compromises animal welfare and performance during the hot summer months, leading to multibillion-dollar losses to the global livestock industries. ![]() ![]() Narrator Karen White expresses Elle’s take-charge attitude and Archer’s equally strong personality.
