Trypanosomosis in Goats [PDF]

Annals of the New York Academy of Sciences, 2006
Abstract:  Trypanosomosis is a major constraint on ruminant livestock production in Africa, Asia, and South America. The principal host species affected varies geographically, but buffalo, cattle, camels, and horses are particularly sensitive. Natural infections with Trypanosoma congolense, T. vivax, T. brucei, and T.
