The present study was conducted to study the influence of unilateral adrenalectomy in the black Bengal goat and to observe its influence on stress alleviation capability in terms of changes in blood chemistry, and further emphasis was given to determine whether a single gland is sufficient for survival in these animals. Six female kids were unilaterally adrenalectomised and the other 6 were maintained as intact controls. Blood samples were drawn at regular intervals before and after surgery.
