This practical manual provides an approach to diagnosis in the sheep based on specific signs or problems rather than functional systems or pathological lesions. A wide range of diseases and conditions is covered together with the important aspects of production, such as lamb output and growth rates. Details on post mortem examination and sample-taking are included to assist in maximizing the value of available clinical material. Practitioners and veterinary students should find this book a useful source of reference, as should all those involved with sheep production.
