Parasites of Cattle and Sheep


Book Description

Understanding parasite biology and impact is essential when giving advice on parasite control in farm animals. In the first review devoted to parasites of domestic cattle and sheep alone, this book provides in-depth, focused advice which can be tailored to individual farms. It considers the impact of parasites, both as individual species and as co-infections, as well as epidemiological information, monitoring, and diagnostic procedures. Supported throughout by diagrams and photos to aid diagnosis, it also reviews the basis for control measures such as the responsible use of parasiticides, adaptive animal husbandry and other management practices.

Internal Parasites of Cattle (Classic Reprint)


Book Description

Excerpt from Internal Parasites of Cattle Young animals are, as' a general rule, the greatest sufferers from parasitic infestations and one's first efforts should be directed towards their protection. This is the underlying principle of sanitation. In areas where parasites are prevalent calves should be kept away from infested pastures at least for the first 6 months of then lives. They should be raised either in the barn, in dry lots, or on pastures on which no cattle, sheep, or goats have grazed for from 4 to 6 months. The calves should, of course, be well fed and cared for in order that they may make the greatest possible gains during that period.
