English term

casting (cattle) / técnica para marcado o atención veterinaria de ganado

English to Spanish Medical Livestock / Animal Husbandry
Según este sitio:
Casting refers to a technique using a rope to make large animals, predominantly adult cattle, lie down or become recumbent. The rope is used to apply firm, consistent pressure to points on the cow's body, causing the animal to lie down with minimal struggling. It's important to ensure that you have gained control of the cow's head before casting the animal, typically via the application of a rope halter. It's also important to plan ahead and ensure that no pressure is applied to the cow's airway once they are cast. A variety of rope casting patterns can be used: be careful not to catch the udder, prepuce or scrotum in any of the ropes. https://www.vetnursing.ie/casting-cattle
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Cattle may need to be deliberately thrown or tipped over for certain types of husbandry practices and medical treatment. When done for medical purposes, this is often called "casting", and when performed without mechanical assistance requires the attachment of 9 to 12 metres (30 to 40 ft) of rope around the body and legs of the animal. After the rope is secured by non-slip bowline knots, it is pulled to the rear until the animal is off-balance. Once the cow is forced to lie down in sternal recumbency (on its chest), it can be rolled onto its side and its legs tied to prevent kicking. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cow_tipping

"Derribar un bovino es llevarlo al suelo o echarlo por tierra, aplicando métodos técnicos con la ayuda de sogas. Al derribar los bovinos deben tenerse en cuenta las siguientes recomendaciones: Tener cuidado con la cabeza para evitar golpes Que el sitio esté libre de objetos que incomoden o hieran al animal El lado lateral izquierdo debe quedar siempre hacia arriba. Evitar fracturas"

María Teresa: 'cow-tipping' and 'casting' are alternative English terms for the same technique.
Note from asker:
Muchas gracias, Jennifer. Y ahora tengo un problema, porque traduje "cow tipping" como "derribo de vacas (o reses)". Es un mito urbano, pero igual. ¿Será que uso el mismo término para ambas cosas?
Thanks, Jennifer. I'm translating an article about "cow tipping" as in the urban legend that says people, typically college-age kids, go to a field at night and "tip over" or push cows as a prank. Which several studies have proven it's impossible to do without help from specialized equipment, as the cow's center of mass would prevent it. But I had already translated "tipping" as "derribo" for the prank... Hmmm...
