Methods for managing animals can involve identifying a trait by analyzing a biological sample and determining a physical characteristic of a bovine subject using imaging. A method can include obtaining a targeted trait genetic value and determining a targeted trait value for a bovine subject using imaging. A method can include obtaining genetic information determined by identifying, in a biological sample from the first bovine subject, at least one single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP). An animal can be managed based on information that has been identified and/or obtained.
