Abstract

Le problème à résoudre par la présente invention est de fournir un procédé d'évaluation d'état de santé, un système d'évaluation d'état de santé, un programme et un procédé de détection de défécation, pour évaluer de manière plus commode un état de santé à partir de matières fécales. La solution selon l'invention porte sur un procédé d'évaluation d'état de santé qui comprend : une étape de mesure pour mesurer une température de matières fécales d'un animal cible ; et une étape de proposition de style de vie pour proposer des conseils de style de vie appropriés pour l'animal, sur la base de la température des matières fécales acquise dans l'étape de mesure.
