Copper is one of the several essential trace elements in animal life required for red and white blood cell formation, healthy nerve fibres, pigmentation, wool growth and bone growth 1. In animals, whilst copper deficiency is one of the most commonly diagnosed trace element deficiencies, over-supplement of copper can lead to copper toxicity 2.
Copper deficiency is common in bovines, mainly cattle and sheep, caused by two factors: low copper levels in plants in copper-deficient soils, and an induced deficiency due to ingesting excessive levels of other elements, including: sulphur, iron and molybdenum in feed supplements or pastures 1.
On the other hand, bovines such as sheep and calves prior to weaning are the most susceptible to copper toxicity. This can occur as a result over excessive 'therapeutic' amounts of copper are added to the feed to avoid copper deficiency, however, it's more commonly the result of long-term ingestion of copper in quantities which exceed the nutritional requirements 3.
