Abstract

An apparatus for monitoring the motion activity of an animal comprising sensor means (2, 4, 5) for sensing at least one motion state of the animal and transmission means (3, 7, 9) for transmitting of information to an evaluation station (21) and operatively connected to the sensor means. According to the invention the sensor means includes at least one intensity measuring device (4), the output signals of which represent the animal movements in terms of amplitude, transients and/or rising time and are supplied to said evaluation station (21) comprising a processor (25) for determination of various states of the animal.
