The disease usually develops like the flu and persists for several weeks or more. The initial symptoms of undulant fever are tiring easily, headaches, followed by high fever, chills, drenching sweats, joint pain, backache, loss of weight and appetite. The disease does not frequently cause death but is not to be dealt with lightly. W ith th e e r a d ic a tio n program in the United States and the pasteurization of milk the causes of brucellosis have d im in ish e d g r e a tly , b u t unfortunately the disease still exists as evidenced by cattle at the Hay Creek Ranch. T o a v o id c o n tr a c tin g brucellosis it is recommended that ranchers and farmers take the precaution of cleaning areas likely to become infected and keeping them clean. They should wear gloves when assisting cows during calving. Drinking pasteurized milk r a th e r . raw milk is also recommended. Vaccination of calves for brucellosis is the best way to eradicate the disease. A veterinatian can administer the vaccine. By doing this ranchers can avoid the misfortune experienced at Hay Creek Ranch. Once a herd is found to have brucellosis all attempts are made to trace the disease.
