When do I receive an Animals to check attention?

The system generates an Animals to check attention in 2 situations:

When a cow shows extreme unusual behavior on a day.
When a cow shows unusual behavior that is different from her normal behavior on previous days.

Unusual behavior can indicate possible illness or a risk of illness, so it is important to check the cows that day. Depending on the type of Tag, the neck or leg movements are measured.
