A livestock living quarter for a transport trailer, such as a livestock trailer, provides livestock stalls and mangers inside the trailer. The living quarter includes at least one stall for a livestock animal, the stall defined by a chest wall, an interior wall, and a front wall set parallel to the interior wall. A second stall may be provided, with the interior wall of the first stall providing a divider wall between the first and second stalls, and acting as a front wall of the second stall. The stall divider may be pivotable to allow for entry of a livestock animal into the stall. A manger is disposed in front of the stall for storage of feed that is accessible to the livestock animal in the stall. Optionally, a water trough is accessible at the manger, and other spaces may provide living quarters or facilities for an operator.

Methods and apparatus are provided for a trailer-mounted system for easing the process of loading a horse into a horse trailer. In one embodiment the system includes a plurality of hinged panels pivotally attached at a proximal end thereof to a back or side of the horse trailer. The panels are moveable between a stowed condition folded one atop the other against the trailer, and a deployed condition with the panels unfolded and extended away from the trailer.

An example truck bed on-board storage system includes a first panel configured to slide into at least one slot formed in a truck bed. Hinge(s) are mounted to a bedrail of the truck bed. A second panel is connected to the hinge(s). The first and second panels form a first enclosure with at least three walls and a floor of the truck bed. A rear wall of the truck bed is spaced apart from the cab of the truck bed at a distance to receive both the first and second panels. The first and second panels are configured to be removed from the truck bed and slid between the rear wall of the truck bed and the cab of the truck. A third panel and a fourth panel forms a second enclosure with the first panel and at least two walls and the floor of the truck bed.

A method and system for preparing a distribution program for insects comprises obtaining distribution data of a wild population of insects; obtaining distribution parameters including distribution resolution levels of at least one available distribution vehicle; generating a population density map at a resolution level consistent with the distribution resolution level of the vehicle; generating a release map by modifying the population density map in accordance with the distribution parameters; and generating a path using the release map, the path defining dosages of insects to be released at respective locations along the path.

Modular skid units are provided that are versatile and easily configurable for particular applications. In some examples, a modular design allows for many different combinations of modular components, such as seats, canine boxes, storage boxes, patient transport units, etc. In some examples, the modular and quick release nature of the system enables users to selectively remove and attach the modular components as needed for a given task, including the ability to quickly and easily change the modular components in the field to meet the specific needs of a mission or task. In some examples, the modular components include quick release locking mechanisms that include a set of locking elements for quickly and easily switching components.
