Brucellosis
Continued from page 1
bouts of fever and malaise (not
feeling well) are the symptoms.
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.
