    'Milk Fever' in cows and buffaloes is caused due to a deficiency of calcium. This condition, also known as parturient paresis, is typically seen in dairy cows shortly after the onset of lactation when the demand for calcium for milk production exceeds the body's ability to mobilize calcium reserves.
