This document summarizes livestock management during floods in Pakistan. It defines disasters and floods, then discusses key aspects of livestock management including mitigation, preparedness, response, and recovery. Mitigation involves structural measures like housing animals away from flood plains and non-structural activities like advising owners of risks. Preparedness includes arranging animal shelters, food/water storage, and vaccination programs. Response consists of veterinary clinics and rescue operations. Recovery supports reconstructing infrastructure and restoring animal and community wellbeing through veterinary care and contingency planning. Overall it outlines the main strategies for managing livestock when floods occur in Pakistan.
