Milking can traumatise zones in the udder and in the teats, although technical parameters characterising the machine milking accord with the norm. Our aim was to investigate temperature responses during milking. This was done in milking parlours on farms by means of thermography, using the thermovision sets AGEMA 470 and AGA 880. Thermal profiles were recorded immediately before and after milking. After evaluating all screen pictures it was found that milking causes considerable temperature changes in the teats. The difference of temperature was 5 degrees C before and after milking.The temperature changes in the udder were not so intensive, the difference not exceeding 1 degree C
