Effects of Dietary Protein and Fat Levels on Growth Performance, Nutrient Digestibility, Serum Indexes, and Rectal Fecal Microbiota of Sika Deer (<i>Cervus nippon</i>) Fawns in Early Wintering Period

Effects of Dietary Protein and Fat Levels on Growth Performance, Nutrient Digestibility, Serum Indexes, and Rectal Fecal Microbiota of Sika Deer (<i>Cervus nippon</i>) Fawns in Early Wintering Period

This study examined the effects of dietary crude protein (CP: 18%, 15%) and crude fat (EE: 8%, 4%) levels, and their interactions, on growth performance, nutrient digestibility, serum indices, and rectal fecal microbiota in sika deer fawns during early wintering. A two-month 2 × 2 factorial experime...
