Sero-epidemiological and clinicopathological studies on some infectious & parasitic diseases in wild ungulates and their relationship with livestock

Abstract

Wildlife and domestic animals share many infections that may be transmitted in any direction. Considering the above factors, Sariska Tiger Reserve was thought to be an ideal place for a pilot study on wildlife diseases mainly through serological investigations with following objectives : 1. To define presence or absence of selected diseases in wild ungulates and livestock in and around Sariska Tiger Reserve. 2. To establish physiological reference values of wild ungulates.
