138 - Physically move animals from drying streams to others that are running

139 - Channel water from consistent source for sensitive animals in drying pools

140 - Clean water sources of debris/obstruction to allow flow of water to drying aquatic habitats

150 - Provide awareness on the importance of water catchment areas for water quality

151 - Establish protected areas over sensitive water catchments

152 - Reforest and rehabilitate forests within sensitive watershed and catchment areas

153 - Place and enforce buffer zones around streams and water sources

163 - Utilize appropriate building materials for livestock enclosres that can withstand climtic extremes

446 - Use antibiotics to treat the Charolais Bullock eyelid sores problem due to sunlight overexposure

447 - Avoid sunlight vulnerable varieties of bullock like Charolais
