Thirty-sixth tick. Seventh exotic vertical, first non-human-centric.

Per-species gait + vital tables

Species Stride Normal RR
Cattle 0.6-1.2 Hz 10-30
Pig 1.0-2.0 Hz 10-25
Sheep 1.5-2.5 Hz 12-25
Horse 1.0-1.8 Hz 8-16
Chicken 3.0-5.0 Hz 15-40

R10 gait taxonomy directly extends.

Six-cog roadmap

cog-cattle-monitor / cog-pig-welfare / cog-predator-alert / cog-lameness-detector / cog-birthing-alert / cog-free-range-tracker.

High-impact use cases

  • Predator detection (R12 PABS): mitigates $232M/year US livestock losses
  • Heat-stress dairy (R14 V1): 30-50% milk-production drop before visual signs
  • Lameness early detection (R10): Best Way to Block #1 welfare issue currently missed until severe

Seven verticals now

R10 wildlife / R11 maritime / R14 home / R16 healthcare / R17 industrial / R18 disaster / R19 livestock. Overwhelming evidence of vertical-agnostic infrastructure.

…t non-human-centric

Seventh exotic vertical demonstrating the loop's vertical-agnostic
infrastructure. R19 is the FIRST NON-HUMAN-CENTRIC vertical.

R19 composes:
- R10 gait taxonomy (extended to livestock species)
- R6.2.5 multi-subject union (herd density)
- R12 PABS (predator detection + cattle-fall)
- R14 V1 (rate-level breathing for welfare scoring)
- R15 (per-animal RF fingerprint for ID without tag)

Per-species gait + vital tables:
| Species  | Stride       | Normal RR | Stress RR |
| Cattle   | 0.6-1.2 Hz   | 10-30 BPM | >40       |
| Pig      | 1.0-2.0 Hz   | 10-25 BPM | >35       |
| Sheep    | 1.5-2.5 Hz   | 12-25 BPM | >30       |
| Horse    | 1.0-1.8 Hz   |  8-16 BPM | >20       |
| Chicken  | 3.0-5.0 Hz   | 15-40 BPM | >50       |

Six-cog roadmap (0-15y):
- cog-cattle-monitor (5y): R10 + R14 + R6.2.5 + R12.1
- cog-pig-welfare (5y): R6.2.5 + R14 + correlation
- cog-predator-alert (5y): R12 PABS + R10 classifier
- cog-lameness-detector (10y): R10 gait asymmetry + drift
- cog-birthing-alert (10y): R14 V1 species signature
- cog-free-range-tracker (15y): R6.2.2 sparse + Tailscale mesh

High-impact use cases:
- Predator detection at pasture edges: mitigates 32M/year US livestock
  losses (USDA 2015)
- Heat-stress detection in dairy: overheated cattle drop milk
  production 30-50% before visual signs
- Lameness early detection: dairy industry's #1 welfare issue
- Sick-pig isolation alert: tail-biting cascade prevention

Three scenarios:
- Dairy barn (5y): 00 vs 0K visual+RFID+behaviour
- Free-range pasture (10y): self-organising solar+ESP32+Tailscale
- Pig barn welfare (15y): EU End-the-Cage / Prop 12 alignment

What's different from human verticals:
- Mass range 1.5-1000 kg (3+ orders of magnitude)
- Count 1-1000+ per pen
- Privacy: farmer-consent regime, not HIPAA/OSHA/GDPR
- Regulatory: USDA / EU welfare instead of FDA/OSHA
- Cost sensitivity: very high (2-5% margins)
- Chicken-scale economically marginal

Honest scope:
- Synthetic data only; per-species RCS measurements needed
- Chicken-scale marginal economically
- High-density pig (8-100/barn) may exceed R6.2.5's 4-occupant limit
- Weather effects on outdoor RF not in scope
- No animal-welfare ethics review (loop specifies infrastructure)

R19 special status: FIRST NON-HUMAN-CENTRIC. Privacy framework doesn't
apply (animals can't consent); replaced by animal-welfare regulations.
R18+R19 = two verticals needing external partnerships (FEMA, USDA).

Seven exotic verticals now:
1. R10 wildlife
2. R11 maritime
3. R14 empathic appliances (home)
4. R16 healthcare
5. R17 industrial
6. R18 disaster (integrates MAT crate)
7. R19 livestock (first non-human-centric)

Composes with every loop thread (R1, R3, R5, R6/R6.1, R6.2.5, R7, R10,
R12/R12.1, R13 NEG, R14, R15) + ADR-113 + ADR-105-109.

Coordination: ticks/tick-36.md, no PROGRESS.md edit.
