Trypanotolerant cattle in West and Central Africa.
Journal of the South African Veterinary Association, 1984 Two native humpless types of Bos taurus cattle which are tolerant to trypanosomiasis were described in West Africa at the beginning of this century. In spite of the fact that they are small breeds, they already represent some 25% of all cattle present in the region.
