ovine pneumonia
Ovine pneumonia is a respiratory disease that affects sheep, primarily caused by bacteria, viruses, or environmental factors. It leads to inflammation of the lungs, resulting in symptoms such as coughing, nasal discharge, and difficulty breathing. Young lambs are particularly vulnerable, but the disease can affect sheep of any age.
Prevention of ovine pneumonia involves good management practices, including proper ventilation in barns, vaccination, and maintaining a clean environment. Early detection and treatment are crucial to reduce the risk of severe illness and improve recovery rates in affected animals.
