The estrous cycle is the cycle of a non-pregnant female mammal that goes through a luteal phase and a follicular phase. Estrus is the period in which an animal will stand to be bred, and is part of the follicular phase of the estrous cycle.
An easy way to remember it is that estrous is an adjective and estrus is a noun. Thus, estrous refers to the entire cycle, whereas estrus just refers to the phase in which the animal can get pregnant.
Usage:
The female chimpanzee can get pregnant because she is in estrus.
The female chimpanzee can get pregnant in this phase of her estrous cycle.

How long is the average pig?
"four months, four days." Ok you are off just a little. First of all, you are thinking of the gestation period which is actually 3 months 3 weeks 3 days. the Estrous Cycle is 21 days. length of estrus is anywhere from 12 hours to up to 60 hours. The gestation period is the length in which the animal is pregnant. The estrous cycle is the time between 2 estruses. And an Estrus is the time in which they are fertile or in heat.
Do cats go through menopause?
No. Menopause is the period when women stop menstruating, and since cats do not menstruate in the first place, they cannot go through menopause. Only primates, such as humans and chimps, menstruate. (Cats will bleed a little while in heat, but this is part of the estrous cycle, which is not the same. Estrus in cats is closer to the period right after menstruation in humans.) They don't even go through menopause in the sense of ceasing to experience estrus; cats remain fertile throughout life.

What is the amount of time between breading cycles in cows?
Synchronization of estrus (heat) involves manipulating the estrous cycle of beef females so they can be bred at approximately the same time. There are several protocols available for synchronizing estrus among beef females. Traditional protocols are designed to mimic or control the corpus luteum on the ovary. New protocols have been designed to control ovulation and/or the follicular waves that occur on the ovary during the 21-day estrous cycle. There are three primary groups of products used to synchronize estrus or ovulation in beef cattle: prostaglandins, progestins, and gonadotropins. Prostaglandin products have the trade names of Lutalyse, Estrumate, and IN-SYNCH and each contain prostaglandin F2? (PGF2?) or an analogue of PGF2?. The progestin products include the vaginal implant CIDR® and Melengestrol Acetate (MGA), that is consumed orally. The GnRH products are Cystrorelin, Factrel, and Fertagyl.
When was Estrus Records created?
Estrus Records was created in 1990.
