RESUMO
A Instrução Normativa nº 46, de 28 de agosto de 2018, regulamenta a exportação de bovinos, bubalinos, ovinos e caprinos vivos destinados ao abate imediato, engorda ou reprodução e estabelece normas e procedimentos básicos para a preparação de animais vivos para exportação por via marítima, fluvial, aérea ou terrestre. Neste artigo, abordam-se seus principais tópicos em relação ao bem-estar dos animais. Visto o aumento desta atividade nos últimos anos no Brasil, a nova legislação representa um avanço na área de transporte de animais vivos, pois até então a legislação era ausente. Contudo, esta é uma atividade complexa e que envolve uma das etapas mais estressantes aos animais de produção, o manejo pré-abate. Mesmo com este avanço, devemos atentar aos pontos ainda deficientes e que poderão ser melhorados nos próximos anos, eliminando ou minimizando falhas que ainda persistem, embasados em estudos técnicos e científicos.
Normative Instruction No. 46 from August 28, 2018, which regulates the exportation of cattle, buffalos, sheep and goats for immediate slaughter, fattening or reproduction, establishes the norms and procedures for the preparation of live animals for exportation by sea, river, air or land. In this article, we discuss the main topics related to animal well-being within this context. Considering the increase of this activity in recent years in Brazil, the new legislation represents an improvement in the area of transportation of live animals, given that until then there was no legislation. However, this is a complex activity that involves one of the most stressful stages for animals, the pre-slaughter management. Even with this improvement, we must take into account the areas that are still deficient and that can be improved in the coming years, eliminating and/or minimizing failures that still persist, based on technical and scientific studies.

The combining factors during initial handling might affect the broiler growth during the last week. Other factors might be considered, such as: fasting time, distance between hatchery and farm, vibration level, road quality, travel time, type of boxes and controlling environment inside the lorry. The aim of this work was to assess the thermal profile of truck with different levels of box placement during day-old chickens transport. An experiment was conducted through monitoring of 11 transport loads, with maximum capacity of 630 day-old chickens boxes, totalizing 63,000 animals. The day-old chicken transport truck (approximately 8 × 2.50 m, 2.50 m high) was environmentally controlled, with three box stacks (left, right and center) spaced 0.7 m. Air temperature, wind speed and humidity were controlled by sensors and electronic panel located in the truck cab. The set points for thermal conditions were: temperature between 23 and 25C and relative humidity between 60 and 70%. To characterize the environmental condition during transport, the following thermal variables were used: dry-bulb temperature, relative humidity and specific enthalpy, through data loggers (Onset, HOBO) programmed to record data at 10 minute intervals. Data was registered in two levels of the load (first rack and floor) where 17 data loggers were distributed throughout the truck. The experiment used a complet
