The sensor based analysis has various applications in different areas such as agriculture, food industry, pharmaceuticals, environmental matters and health care. In livestock sector, a sensor is an electronic device which can measure the physiological, immune and behavioral responses of domestic animals and different animal species. Sensors allow the construction of precise and accurate monitoring systems to measure single and multiple parameters as well as monitoring the physiology and environment of animals. All living organisms have biological sensors for measuring light, motion, temperature, humidity, vibration, pressure, nutrients, and so forth. Biological sensors are type of artificial sensor that are made by using biological susceptible sensors based on biological sensors and include tools that measure the potential of physiological and behavioral responses of domestic animals and animal species. New biological sensors can have major benefits in livestock manure management, diagnosis of disease and livestock isolation, health monitoring and diagnosis of the reproductive cycle, as well as monitoring physiological health through animal ecosystem analysis. Continuous and affordable monitoring systems can be developed by developing of integrated systems and network tools. Given the available data, sensors will improve sustainable agriculture by reducing the negative effects of the livestock industry on the environment. The purpose of this article is to review the advanced emerging technologies in animal health monitoring in order to achieve accurate animal husbandry. Biological sensors will revolutionize the livestock sector by introducing cost-effective new technologies, early detection and reducing the catastrophic effects of disease outbreaks in livestock farms.
